Lands on IL with side soreness The Red Sox placed Sogard on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with right side soreness, Chris Henrique of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.

Impact It's unclear how long the injury has been bothering Sogard, but he hasn't played since Saturday. Anthony Seigler is grabbing Sogard's spot on Boston's active roster, and Isiah Kiner-Falefa could see steadier playing time while Sogard is out.

Taking seat Sunday Sogard is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact After taking a seat for Friday's series opener in Cleveland while managing a nagging right side injury, Sogard returned to the lineup at second base for Saturday's 9-1 win and went hitless in two at-bats. The Red Sox will give Sogard another day off Sunday to further manage the side injury, which will enable both Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Caleb Durbin to stick in starting roles in the infield.

Returns to lineup Saturday Sogard (side) is starting at shortstop and batting fifth for the Red Sox on Saturday versus Cleveland, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Sogard has been dealing with a side injury and didn't start Friday. However, he entered as a pinch runner in the eighth inning and finished the game at first base, suggesting that the side issue isn't severe. Indeed, Sogard is back in the lineup Saturday, and he seems to have seized a regular role at second base while Marcelo Mayer has shifted to shortstop in the wake of Trevor Story's absence due to a sport hernia.

Enters as pinch runner Sogard (side) entered Friday's game as a pinch runner in the eighth inning and finished the game at first base in a 4-3 loss to Cleveland.

Impact The switch-hitting Sogard has been dealing with a right side issue which bothers him when hitting left-handed. He seemed fine going from first to third on a single but never got the chance to test the injury during a plate appearance. The Red Sox are scheduled to face Guardians' left-hander Parker Messick on Saturday, which would be an opportunity for Sogard to swing from the right side of the plate.

Managing side isssue Interim manager Chad Tracy said Friday that Sogard is dealing with a nagging right side injury, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Tracy added that Sogard's side bothers him more while hitting left-handed, so the Red Sox will keep him on the bench during Friday's matchup against right-hander Slade Cecconi. Caleb Durbin will draw the start at the hot corner in Sogard's stead, and the 28-year-old switch-hitter can be considered day-to-day for now.

Starts at second base Sogard went 1-for-4 with a triple and a run scored in Sunday's 6-5 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Sogard ignited a late rally in the bottom of the ninth inning with a leadoff triple and scored Boston's fifth run but the comeback attempt stalled there. He made a seventh consecutive start with this one coming at second base. Marcelo Mayer, who has been the team's primary starter at the keystone, was moved to shortstop, which will be his primary position while Trevor Story (abdomen) is out after undergoing surgery. Sogard has been a spark since being called up and is slashing .304/.429/.435 over seven contests.

Makes fifth consecutive start Sogard started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Friday's 8-6 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Sogard made a fifth straight start and has hit safely in all five, going 6-for-17 with three walks, two RBI and a run scored. He's finding opportunities in the infield -- whether due to an injury or underperformance -- at shortstop, second base and third base. The Red Sox plan to transition Marcelo Mayer to shortstop in light of Corey Seager undergoing surgery to repair a sports hernia, which leaves Sogard as part of a rotation at second and third.

MAY 21 • MLB.COM

Earning more work at 3B Sogard will start at third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Impact Sogard will remain in the lineup for the fourth game in a row and will be making his third start at third base during that stretch. All three of Sogard's starts at the hot corner have come against right-handed pitching, and the 28-year-old may have at least temporarily overtaken the struggling Caleb Durbin as Boston's preferred option at the position. Sogard has three hits in 11 at-bats since being promoted from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, so he has more work to do before cementing himself as an everyday player for a more extended stretch of action.

Recalled from Worcester The Red Sox recalled Sogard from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Sogard will come up from Triple-A to replenish Boston's infield depth following Trevor Story's (groin) move to the injured list. Sogard has spent the entire 2026 campaign in the minors up to this point, slashing .269/.417/.454 with five homers, 23 RBI, 27 runs scored and four steals across 168 plate appearances.

MAY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Dispatched to minors The Red Sox optioned Sogard to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact The 28-year-old Sogard was competing for a super-utility role for Boston but hit just .081 across 43 plate appearances this spring. Nate Eaton appears to have the upper hand on that gig for Boston.
