Athletics vs. Red Sox - News - August 09, 2026 | FOX Sports

Andruw Monasterio - Receiving evening off Monasterio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

Impact On Sunday, interim manager Chad Tracy told Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald that he planned to give Monasterio a day off in the near future, and the skipper settled on Monday's series opener in Toronto for giving the shortstop a breather. Nick Sogard will slide over from second base to replace Monasterio, who had produced a robust .344/.408/.492 slash line with one home run, one stolen base, 14 RBI and nine runs while starting in each of the Red Sox's previous 17 games.

Masataka Yoshida - Moves past illness, rejoins lineup Yoshida (illness) will start at designated hitter and bat fifth in Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

Impact After sitting out the previous two games while recovering from a bug that had been making its way around the Red Sox clubhouse, Yoshida has made enough progress in his recovery from the ailment to rejoin the lineup. The Red Sox will hope that the abbreviated absence won't disrupt Yoshida's rhythm at the plate; over his last seven games, he's gone 10-for-27 with a home run, three doubles, two walks, seven RBI and five runs.
