Red Sox assess Romy Gonzalez injury following rehab setback
Summary

Red Sox infielder Romy Gonzalez experienced a setback during his rehab assignment with Double-A Portland. He left Friday's game due to hip flexor soreness after two plate appearances and did not play Saturday. This delay occurs as Gonzalez was expected to join the major league roster soon after recovering from shoulder surgery. Interim manager Chad Tracy previously indicated that Gonzalez might be activated during the upcoming series in Colorado or the next weekend's series against the Yankees. The team is gathering more information about Gonzalez's condition as tests are scheduled. Meanwhile, the Red Sox have placed Isiah Kiner-Falefa on the injured list, adding to their infield injury issues.
