Red Sox have lefty masher in Worcester batting .344 — and he's 'ready'
Infielder Romy Gonzalez admits that he rushed his rehab assignment to return quicker to the Red Sox. "There's no doubt about it."
Worcester Red Sox infielder Romy Gonzalez has returned from rehab and is now batting .344 for Triple-A Worcester, according to recent news. Gonzalez, who missed 81 games due to shoulder surgery, appeared in just six rehab games before the team activated him from the injured list. He struggled with the Red Sox, batting only .185 (12-for-65) during his time in Boston.
Gonzalez explained that he rushed his return, but now feels confident and ready. Since being optioned to Worcester, he has hit .344 with a .400 on-base percentage, .505 slugging percentage and .905 OPS in 24 games. Gonzalez, a right-handed hitter who excels against left-handed pitchers, expressed his readiness to return to Boston whenever called upon.
The Red Sox have eight prospects joining the Arizona Fall League in 2026, with outfielder Mason White and shortstop Franklin Arias being the top picks.
