New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez appeared to have gotten caught napping on the basepaths against the Boston Red Sox on Saturday.

Like Dobbins, the Red Sox as a whole are trending in the right direction. Saturday’s win brought them back to .500 and back in the mix in the AL East. Once all of Boston’s pitchers are healthy, having Dobbins in the organization as a reliable extra arm wherever Cora needs him will be handy late in the season.

Dobbins didn’t take the bait postgame and pile on the Yankees after beating them twice. But he has become something of a young breakout star for the Red Sox this season and somewhat quietly has a 4-1 record and 3.74 ERA in 55 ⅓ innings in his first taste of big league action.

The Boston Red Sox have provided a positive injury update on Tanner Houck, indicating progress in his recovery.

Alex Bregman's return to the Red Sox isn't imminent, but he's hopeful to be back in the lineup in the next few weeks.

When the sidelined Slaten did not recover the way the Red Sox anticipated over the week-plus after he landed on the injured list, they sent him for another round of tests, which yielded this discovery.

Jarren Duran has led off for the Red Sox against both righties and lefties all season. That's about to change, Alex Cora said Saturday.
