Roman Anthony Still Out With Back Injury on Saturday
Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (back) will miss a fourth straight game on Saturday on the road in Baltimore against the division-rival Orioles, according to MLB.com. Jarren Duran is in left field again and will hit sixth against Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers. Anthony felt upper-back tightness after a swing in Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees and hasn't played since. The Red Sox were optimistic that Anthony would return for the series opener at Camden Yards on Friday, but they have decided to give him a couple more days off. The injury wasn't considered serious initially, but if the young left-handed-hitting outfielder misses the entire series in Baltimore, Boston might consider placing him on the injured list. With Duran sidelined this week, Andruw Monasterio has seen additional starts as the team's designated hitter. One of the top prospects in all of baseball before making his MLB debut last year, Anthony is off to a slow start in 2026, hitting .225 (18-for-80) with a homer, four RBI, 11 runs, and two stolen bases in his first 22 games played. Check back on Sunday to see if Anthony is ready to return to the field.
