sportsMay 7, 202644128

The Boston Red Sox placed outfielder Roman Anthony on the 10-day injured list retroactive to May 5 with a right wrist sprain and recalled catcher/first baseman Mickey Gasper from Triple-A Worcester. Gasper fills the roster spot and provides Boston with emergency depth at catcher and first base while Anthony recovers; Anthony said he has a sprained ligament in his right wrist. With the Tampa Bay Rays visiting Boston today, Gasper could see immediate playing time and Anthony's absence may force a reshuffle in the Red Sox outfield alignment.
