Boston Red Sox injuries: Christian Arroyo nearing rehab assignment with WooSox, Chris Sale 'really excited' about recent progress

Before the Red Sox faced the Blue Jays on Tuesday night, manager Alex Cora provided updates on some of the club's injured players:. Second baseman Christian Arroyo (left hand contusion) took batting practice in Worcester ahead of the WooSox' series opener against Buffalo on Tuesday afternoon, Cora said. The club may look to activate him for a rehab assignment in Worcester in the coming days but will wait to see how his hand feels after hitting before deciding on a next step.
