    • Activated from IL, back in lineup
      The Red Sox reinstated Abreu (ankle) from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

      Advice: Abreu will start in right field and bat second against the Reds on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports. Abreu landed on the injured list June 4 after twisting his right ankle in the dugout against the Tigers on June 2. He began his rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday and went 3-for-12 with two solo home runs across his three outings. Prior to his injury, Abreu was slashing .272/.344/.485 with six home runs and 22 RBI while sporting an .829 OPS. To make room for Abreu, utility man Bobby Dalbec was optioned to Triple-A Worcester.

    • Drives in four runs
      Thomas went 3-for-6 with a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Friday's win over Colorado.

      Advice: Thomas finished a home run shy of the cycle as he stuffed the stat sheet Friday. He knocked an RBI single in the third inning and a two-run double in the fourth before capping his day off with an RBI triple in the sixth. Thomas struggled early in the year, but in 24 games since returning from a knee injury he's gone 27-for-94 (.287) with 13 extra-base hits and 18 RBI. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:52 pm
       
    • Lane Thomas drives in four in win over Rockies
      Lane Thomas drove in four runs while picking up three hits in an 11-5 win over the Rockies on Friday.

      Advice: One of those hits was a triple, and it scored CJ Abrams to give Washington their 11-5 win. He also doubled in a pair with another RBI coming on a single. Thomas also scored two runs while improving his slash to .238/.297/.420 along with 16 stolen bases in 46 games. Rotoworld Friday, 8:41 pm
       
    • Wilyer Abreu (ankle) will be activated on Saturday
      Wilyer Abreu (ankle) will be activated from the injured list prior to Saturday’s game against the Reds.

      Advice: The 24-year-old outfielder rejoined the team on Friday, but since he wasn’t going to start against left-hander Andrew Abbott anyways, the Red Sox are waiting an additional day to officially activate him from the injured list. He’ll return to a .272/.344/.485 slash line with six homers, 22 RBI and seven stolen bases through his first 53 games on the season. Rotoworld Friday, 3:06 pm
       
    • Likely to be activated Saturday
      Abreu (ankle) is likely to be activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

      Advice: Abreu is with the Red Sox in Cincinnati but hasn't been activated just yet, probably because the Reds are starting a left-hander Friday in Andrew Abbott. Expect Abreu to be activated and in Saturday's lineup versus righty Frankie Montas. He's been sidelined since early June with a right ankle sprain. Rotowire.com Friday, 1:49 pm
       
    • Pops eighth homer
      Thomas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The 28-year-old outfielder took Ryne Nelson deep in the third inning to give the Nationals an early lead that quickly slipped away. Thomas had a tough start to the season due to injuries, but he appears healthy now and back in his 2023 form. He's hit safely in 11 of the last 13 games, slashing .292/.345/.667 over that stretch with five of his eight homers on the year and 12 of his 23 runs. Rotowire.com Friday, 6:41 am
       
    • Jordan Walker slugs another homer at Triple-A
      Jordan Walker went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer on Thursday for Triple-A Memphis.

      Advice: The encouraging development here for fantasy managers is that Walker is finally starting to hit for some over-the-fence pop. The 22-year-old former top prospect has gone deep three times since June 1. Rotoworld Thursday, 7:52 pm

    • Wilyer Abreu (ankle) set to return on Friday
      Wilyer Abreu (ankle) is likely to return for Friday’s series opener against the Reds.

      Advice: Abreu hammered a pair of solo homers on Wednesday in a minor league rehab game for Triple-A Worcester and is expected to rejoin the club for the start of a series out in Cincinnati. The 24-year-old has been on the shelf since early June when he suffered a right ankle sprain when he slipped on the dugout steps. His return will provide a lift for the Red Sox, who are riding a five-game winning streak. Rotoworld Thursday, 5:37 pm
       
    • Activation possible this weekend
      Abreu (ankle) could be activated from the 10-day injured list during this weekend's series against the Reds, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

      Advice: Abreu played the second game of a rehab assignment for Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, starting in right field, and signaled his readiness for an activation by launching two solo home runs. He's expected to serve as Worcester's DH on Thursday and should rejoin the Red Sox on Friday or Saturday. Rotowire.com Thursday, 5:11 am
