Romy Gonzalez begins rehab assignment with Red Sox at Double-A
Summary

Romy Gonzalez began a rehab assignment at Double-A on June 18, 2026. After suffering an injury earlier in the season, Gonzalez looks to return to the Red Sox lineup soon, potentially during the team’s upcoming road trip or for the series against the Yankees on June 22. Manager Chad Tracy emphasized the importance of incorporating Gonzalez back into the lineup, highlighting his power and versatility. Gonzalez is working primarily at second base and designated hitter but will also train at first base during his rehab. The Red Sox must consider corresponding roster moves as they currently carry an overloaded catching lineup and another infielder, Andruw Monasterio, has struggled recently.
