Red Sox likely to exclude Franklin Arias from major league roster

The Boston Red Sox appear unlikely to call up prospect Franklin Arias for the final 15 games of the season. Following the return of veteran shortstop Trevor Story, the organization is reportedly prioritizing depth from Nick Sogard and Andruw Monasterio. Management has expressed caution regarding the potential promotion of the younger player, aiming to avoid placing excessive pressure on him during the current playoff push. While an immediate promotion is not expected, the team may reevaluate the situation if injuries force a roster adjustment among the active infielders. Arias remains with the organization as the Red Sox finalize their roster strategy for the end of the season.
