  "account": "Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow discussed Roman Anthony's injury status during the MLB general managers' meeting in Las Vegas. Breslow confirmed that Anthony's injury is taking longer to heal than anticipated and that the outfielder is expected to recover during the offseason. Anthony, who is under an eight-year, $130 million contract, is currently resting and minimizing stress on his injured wrist. According to Breslow, Anthony will be evaluated in a few weeks and is then expected to begin a strengthening program and regaining range of motion before starting a hitting progression. The injury initially occurred on May 4 against the Detroit Tigers when Anthony suffered a partially torn carpometacarpal (CMC) ligament in his right ring finger. Anthony returned to action on August 30 but resurfaced the injury during Game 1 of the AL Wild Card Series against the Yankees on September 29. Imaging showed new muscle strains in his right wrist, leading to his removal from the postseason roster. The Red Sox star admitted to still feeling discomfort in his hand when he returned in August, but he decided to risk playing through the injury. Breslow revealed that Anthony has undergone multiple follow-up appointments and imaging tests, but as of now, surgery has been ruled out. Breslow stated, \"He's had a bunch of follow-up appointments here, including imaging. We're still collecting information, still working through what the kind of right course of treatment is. And at this point, it doesn't seem that there's any type of surgical intervention. It looks like rest is likely the best path to recovery.\" With Anthony scheduled to be re-evaluated in a couple of weeks, the Red Sox are hopeful that he will be ready to participate in spring training in 2027.",
