Adalberto Mondesi - Shut down again Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Wednesday that Mondesi (knee) has been shut down again, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact Mondesi resumed baseball activities at the beginning of August and had recently advanced to facing live pitching, but his surgically-repaired left knee is apparently barking again. The 28-year-old speedster has not appeared in a game at any level this season and time is running out for him to do so in 2023.

Pablo Reyes - Retains starting role in infield Reyes will start at second base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.
Impact Though he lost hold of regular playing time at shortstop when Trevor Story returned from the 60-day injured list Aug. 8, Reyes has been able to retain an everyday role at the other middle-infield spot ahead of Luis Urias. Reyes will stick in the lineup for a 10th consecutive game Wednesday after going 12-for-32 (.375 average) with one home run, three doubles, one stolen base, four RBI and six runs over the previous nine contests.

Luis Urías - On bench again Wednesday Urias is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Nationals.
Impact Pablo Reyes will make his third straight start at second base as Urias rides the pine for a second consecutive game. The 26-year-old has batted just .200/.286/.240 through 29 plate appearances with Boston and is being treated as more of a utilityman than a regular.
AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jarren Duran - Sitting against lefty Duran is not in the lineup Wednesday versus the Nationals.
Impact Adam Duvall will play center field and sixth as the Red Sox face off against left-hander MacKenzie Gore. Duran has enjoyed a breakout season in Boston, but he continues to sit versus most lefties.
AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Masataka Yoshida - Sitting again Wednesday Yoshida remains out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Nationals.
Impact Rob Refsnyder, Adam Duvall and Alex Verdugo will start across the outfield as the Red Sox take on left-hander MacKenzie Gore. Justin Turner is filling the DH role. Yoshida, who also sat Tuesday with a right-hander on the mound for Washington, has slashed just .252/.278/.398 in 108 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

How Red Sox's Tanner Houck Performed In Final Rehab Start There are reinforcements coming for the Boston Red Sox pitching staff, with Tanner Houck making his final rehab start Wednesday.

Tanner Houck - Dominates in third rehab start Houck (face) struck out four over four scoreless innings and allowed one hit and no walks in his third rehab start with Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday.
Impact Houck has been razor sharp over his most recent two outings for Worcester, covering seven scoreless frames while striking out seven and permitting just three baserunners. He was lifted after 59 pitches (36 strikes) on Wednesday, and though he isn't yet stretched out enough to handle a typical starter's workload, the Red Sox are likely to bring Houck back from the 15-day injured list and have him make his next appearance in the big leagues. Houck tentatively lines up for a return Monday in Houston, and he could be part of a six-man rotation if the Red Sox elect to keep Nick Pivetta in a starting role.

Kenley Jansen - Grabs 28th save Jansen picked up the save in Tuesday's 5-4 victory over the Nationals, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.
Impact Jansen improved to 28-for-31 in save chances this year. Since July 5, he's worked to a pristine 1.54 ERA over 11.2 innings. Overall, Jansen's ERA is down to 2.91 with a 1.21 WHIP and 48:15 K:BB across 40.1 innings this season.
AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nick Pivetta - Goes 4.1 innings in no-decsion Pivetta did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks over 4.1 innings against the Nationals. He struck out seven.
Impact While Pivetta racked up seven strikeouts, he was only able to make it through 4.1 innings after throwing 86 pitches (60 strikes). The right-hander has 17 punchouts over his last three outings (13.1 innings), though he's struggled to a 6.08 ERA in that span. Overall, Pivetta's 8-6 with a 4.34 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 127:41 K:BB across 101.2 innings this season. With Tanner Houck (face) scheduled to return next week, the Red Sox may elect to move Pivetta back to the bullpen.
