Tanner Houck - One more rehab start needed Houck (face) will make one more rehab start before returning from the injured list, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Impact Houck has been out since getting hit by a comebacker in mid-June, an incident which lead to a facial fracture and subsequent surgery. He's made a pair of rehab appearances but has only built up to three innings, so the Red Sox presumably want him to get a bit deeper into the game before activating him. The team is planning on having him return during their series in Houston, which runs from Aug. 21 through Aug. 24.

Connor Wong - Back on bench Wong will sit for the third time in four games Saturday against the Tigers.
Impact Wong has started 77 of Boston's 117 games behind the plate this season, the eight-highest total in the league among catchers. His .244/.298/.389 slash line isn't particularly impressive, though Saturday's starter Reese McGuire owns a similar .267/.305/.367 line, which doesn't signal that the depth chart is about to flip.

Trevor Story - Resting Saturday Story will sit Saturday against the Tigers.
Impact Story started four straight games after his return from elbow surgery, appearing twice at shortstop and twice at designated hitter. Those positions will be filled by Pablo Reyes and Justin Turner, respectively, on Saturday, but Story's initial usage suggests the team believes he's already ready for a heavy workload.
AUGUST 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Justin Turner - Returns as designated hitter Turner (heel) is back in the lineup Saturday against the Tigers, batting third and serving as the designated hitter.
Impact Turner has been dealing with a bone bruise in his left heel throughout August, appearing in just three games and none since Monday. The injury typically requires an absence of at least a month, but the veteran has elected to play through the problem down the stretch. Whether or not the issue leads to increased absences and decreased performance remains to be seen.

Trevor Story - Two hits, steal in win Story started at shortstop and went 2-for-4 with a steal and a run scored in Friday's 5-2 win over Detroit.
Impact Story had his first multi-hit game and steal since being activated off the injured list earlier this week. After fanning six times over his first eight plate appearances, Story is 3-for-7 with a walk and a strikeout since.
AUGUST 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Triston Casas - Provides separation in win Casas went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run in Friday's 5-2 win over the Tigers.
Impact Casas caught all of Tarik Skubal's slider that stayed over the middle of the plate for a no-doubter in the fourth inning. It increased Boston's one-run lead to 4-0. The homer was Casas' 10th since post All-Star break,. The Red Sox were patient with the first baseman, whose average was under .200 through the middle of June. He's hitting .253/.353/.488 for the season.

Over his last seven starts, the 34-year-old southpaw has posted a 2.43 ERA with a terrific 48:5 K:BB across 40.2 frames.
