Joel Peguero is also "expected to miss the next several weeks" with a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, which effectively rules him out for Opening Day.

Reiver Sanmartin was diagnosed with a high grade strain of his right hip flexor and is expected to miss up to three months.

Drew Gilbert (left shoulder impingement) has resumed his throwing program and has been cleared to DH in games. Erik Miller (back tightness) will throw live BP tomorrow.

Tony Vitello said Harrison Bader (right thumb contusion) and Rafael Devers (left hamstring tightness) were both scheduled to have a day off tomorrow, but they could return to the lineup as soon as Sunday.

Harrison Bader departed the game with a right thumb contusion.

Harrison Bader was removed from the game after the first inning. Grant McCray is now in to play center field.

Unclear why Bader was lifted, but he didn't run out a grounder to end the bottom of the first.

Rafael Devers was scratched with a tight left hamstring.

Rafael Devers was scratched from today's game vs. the Dodgers. Bryce Eldridge will play 1B in his place.
