Romy Gonzalez Still Only Playing Catch
Boston Red Sox infielder Romy Gonzalez (shoulder) is still limited to just playing catch, according to manager Alex Cora, and is unable to do any other baseball activities while waiting for the PRP injection to work on his shoulder injury. The issue first cropped up towards the end of last season and has limited Gonzalez all offseason. It's starting to look unlikely that he'll be ready for Opening Day, but the 29-year-old will still likely fit into Boston's crowded infield mix at some point, He slashed .305/.343/.483 with an .826 OPS, nine home runs, 53 RBI, 47 runs scored, and six stolen bases in 96 regular-season games last year and had an impressive 99th-percentile hard-hit rate and 123 wRC+ in what a breakout campaign. He especially excelled against lefties and should at least get time in a platoon when he's healthy. Monitor his recovery and keep him as a late-round deep-league value addition, especially if you need some roster versatility.
