BOSTON — Alex Bregman is not in the Red Sox lineup Sunday against the Marlins. Abraham Toro will play third base. Boston will try for a three-game sweep against Miami at Fenway Park. First pitch is scheduled for 1:35 p.m.

Boston is currently holding onto the second wild card seed at 67-56 and is 5.5 games back from the Toronto Blue Jays in the AL East. The Red Sox are more than capable of reaching the postseason, but adding a talented first baseman like Lowe could be the difference in making a deep run and facing an early exit.

*After Saturday’s action, the Red Sox’ chances of making the postseason were at 88.2 percent according to Fangraphs, and given that the next closest team in the American League (Cleveland) stood at just 20., the Sox look to be in good shape with six weeks remaining in the regular season.

The Boston Red Sox's prospects have had a big impact on this season, but calling up even more talent could tip the scales in their favor.

Anthony would have the third-best on-base percentage in baseball this season if he had enough plate appearances to qualify. The post Red Sox’ Roman Anthony already reaches elite status at getting on-base appeared first on Boston.

That Triston Casas walked across the Red Sox clubhouse to his locker on Saturday afternoon was noteworthy because he did not have any sort of brace on his surgically repaired left knee, not even a compression sleeve.
