Curtis Mead Making Progress As Season Comes To End
The Boston Red Sox could be getting Curtis Mead back soon
Boston Red Sox second baseman Curtis Mead is making progress towards returning to action as the regular season winds down. Acquired before the trade deadline, Mead fractured his wrist in his debut with the team and was sidelined for two months. He has since shed the cast he was in and began throwing and catching again. However, getting him back in the lineup will be challenging.
The Red Sox may not have any rehab games available for Mead, and by the time he is ready, the regular season may already be over. He would be thrust into a postseason lineup after missing a significant amount of time. If Mead can return in time for the postseason, the Red Sox would ideally have him in the lineup alongside stars like Trevor Story, Roman Anthony, Adley Rutschman, and Willson Contreras.
This would form one of the best lineups of the year, potentially capable of making a World Series run.
