INJURIES

Resting Saturday Plawecki will be on the bench Saturday against the Yankees, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Impact Plawecki has emerged as Boston's primary catcher after the team sent Christian Vazquez to Houston at the trade deadline, though he's not far above Saturday's starter Reese McGuire on the depth chart. He may not even be ahead at all, as both backstops have started five times in the last 10 games.
AUGUST 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Day off Wednesday Plawecki will sit Wednesday against Atlanta, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Impact Plawecki will get a breather after he went 1-for-5 with a double in Tuesday's loss. Reese Mcguire will take over behind the plate and bat seventh in the series finale.
AUGUST 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sits in favor of McGuire Plawecki is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact Plawecki and Reese McGuire will alternate turns behind the dish for the sixth consecutive game, with both backstops earning three starts apiece during that span. Expect manager Alex Cora to continue deploying a timeshare at catcher until one separates himself from the other from a performance standpoint.
AUGUST 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Out of Friday's lineup Plawecki is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Royals, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact The 31-year-old has operated as Boston's primary catcher after Christian Vazquez was traded to Houston earlier this week, but Plawecki will take a seat for Friday's contest. Reese McGuire will work behind the plate and bat eighth.

Takes seat Wednesday Plawecki isn't starting Wednesday against the Astros, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact Plawecki started the last two games and went 0-for-6 with two strikeouts. While he should see an uptick in playing time after Christian Vazquez was traded to Houston on Tuesday, Reese McGuire is starting behind the dish and batting eighth Wednesday.

Three hits in blowout loss Plawecki went 3-for-4 with a run scored Friday in the Red Sox's 28-5 loss to the Blue Jays.
Impact The Red Sox deployed top backstop Christian Vazquez at first base in their first game out of the All-Star break, allowing Plawecki to pick up a turn behind the plate. While Plawecki was effective during his four plate appearances on the night, he's likely in need of a breather catching all 228 of the Boston pitching staff's throws on a night Toronto sent 63 batters to the plate. Expect Vazquez to check back in behind the dish Saturday.

Back from COVID-19 IL Plawecki (illness) was activated from the COVID-19 injured list Wednesday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact Plawecki landed on the COVID-19 IL earlier this week but was able to quickly clear the protocols and rejoin the team. Now that he's available, the 31-year-old will reclaim backup duties behind starting catcher Christian Vazquez. Connor Wong was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move.
JULY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Impact It's unclear if Plawecki ever tested positive for the virus before or since being placed on the COVID-19-related injured list Monday, but the fact that he's already back with the team suggests he'll likely be formally activated within the next day or two. Connor Wong is currently on Boston's active roster as the top backup to No. 1 catcher Christian Vazquez.

Verdugo twice rallies Red Sox for 6-5 win over Yankees

Alex Verdugo hit a tying single in the eighth inning and a winning two-run single that capped a three-run 10th, lifting the Boston Red Sox over the New York Yankees 6-5
JULY 10, 2022 • Associated Press
Seeing scarce opportunities Plawecki is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact Plawecki will stick on the bench for the 14th time in 16 games and continues to see little usage, even by the standards of No. 2 catchers. So long as top backstop Christian Vazquez remains healthy, he'll shoulder a heavy workload behind the plate.

Trying to keep things loose, Kevin Plawecki takes measure of Red Sox' personalities - The Boston Globe Each day, Plawecki asks a teammate, “Hey, where you at today?” The personality can measure from 1-10, with 1 being the lowest and 10 the hig...

Piles on against Pale Hose Plawecki went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 16-7 win over the White Sox.
Impact The Red Sox were already up 14-7 when Plawecki, who entered the game an inning earlier, piled on with his first home run of the season. He hasn't had the kind of success he experienced during his first two seasons with Boston, which was due to unsustainable BABIPs, but the Red Sox value Plawecki's work with the staff and accept anything he gives with bat in hand.
