Steve Pearce Activated, Sam Travis Optioned
                
        
        The Boston Red Sox activated first baseman Steve  Pearce (calf) from the 10-day injured list on Thursday and optioned first baseman Sam  Travis to Triple-A Pawtucket in a corresponding move. Pearce, last year's unlikely World Series MVP, is likely to slot in at first base and hit third immediately on Thursday against A's left-hander Brett  Anderson. He hit .304/.400/.559 with five of his 11 home runs against southpaws this year and is a strong DFS play when he's facing the right left-hander. Pearce's season-long value is less appealing in a timeshare with Mitch  Moreland.
