Red Sox could be better off without Trevor Story if his struggles continue after his brutal rehab stint
Story's rehab assignment was already rough to watch, and now it's downright painful.
The Boston Red Sox are considering whether to keep Trevor Story on their roster after his recent struggles in rehab. After a brutal rehab stint, Story has been struggling to hit in Triple-A, with only four hits in 26 at-bats and a .339 OPS. This has raised concerns among fans and the team, as they may prefer to avoid bringing him back up to the big leagues.
Despite the Red Sox's recent five-game winning streak, they are set to face the New York Yankees in a four-game series starting tomorrow. Story, who might return first, has a chance to prove himself, but if he fails to regain his form, the team may consider cutting him. The middle infield is currently solid, with Mickey Gasper, Anthony Seigler, and Nick Sogard having been outstanding recently.
However, the Red Sox have always had a way to unload Story if necessary, with Andruw Monasterio being a replacement option, who has cooled off significantly in recent games.
