Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow provided an injury update on outfielder Roman Anthony on October 5, after a challenging 2026 season. Anthony's playoff run ended early due to a right hand strain he suffered in Game 1 against the Yankees, which aggravated a lingering issue that sidelined him for over 100 games this season.
