Speaking ahead of Boston’s game against the Rockies on Wednesday, Alex Cora confirmed that Alex Bregman will likely rejoin the Red Sox roster before the All-Star Break (July 14-17). “Yeah, he’s hitting right now. Feeling good,” Cora said of Bregman. “There’s a good chance he’ll be with us this weekend.”

Manager Alex Cora and Masataka Yoshida had a conversation before the 31-year-old Japanese outfielder began his rehab assignment July 1.

The Boston Red Sox outfield has been a hot topic all season. They have four outfielders capable of playing every day, but one of them could earn more playing time in the infield.
