Expected back Sunday or Monday Santana (quadriceps) will likely rejoin the Red Sox within the next couple days, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact The utility player began a rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Worcester and is almost ready to return from a left quadriceps strain. Santana's role with the Red Sox was already in question before the All-Star break, but especially now that center fielder Jarren Duran is with the club.

Starts rehab assignment Santana (quadriceps) reported to Triple-A Worcester on Friday to begin a rehab assignment, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact Santana has been sidelined by July 6 with the strained quadriceps, so he should only require a couple games in the minors to get back up to game speed. The 30-year-old is hardly guaranteed much of a role once healthy given his .167/.231/.292 slash line through 31 games.

Lands on injured list Santana (quadriceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact Manager Alex Cora said earlier in the week that Santana might require a stint on the injured list, so it's not a major surprise to see the move before Friday's contest. The 30-year-old will be eligible to rejoin the active roster shortly after the All-Star break.

Could land on IL Boston manager Alex Cora said Santana (quadriceps) may need to be placed on the injured list, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Impact The Red Sox will monitor Santana's injury, which he suffered during Tuesday's game, during the day Wednesday. The injury leaves Boston in a bind, as Marwin Gonzalez (hamstring) will be unavailable Wednesday.

Nursing quad injury Santana was removed from Tuesday's loss to the Angels with a left quadriceps injury, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact Santana went 0-for-3 before exiting the contest with the injury, and the severity of the issue remains unclear. Manager Alex Cora said the team needs to be "very careful" with the veteran utility man, so he figures to be unavailable for Wednesday's series finale with a scheduled off day to follow Thursday.

Erupts for five RBI Santana went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and five RBI Thursday against the Royals.
Impact Santana entered Thursday's game having failed to go yard for 23 consecutive games. However, he delivered a three-run home run in the fourth inning to do the majority of his damage in the contest. Despite hitting only .179/.247/.333 across 85 plate appearances on the campaign, Santana could be in line for an uptick in playing time if Bobby Dalbec (hamstring) remains sidelined.

Role on decline Santana is on the bench for Monday's game against the Royals, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact He'll be on the bench for the fourth time in five games and appears to have lost out on a regular spot in the lineup to Michael Chavis. Santana has supplied a measly .485 OPS through 76 plate appearances and could soon be at risk of losing his spot on the 40-man roster.

Swipes bag Sunday Santana went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 9-2 win over the Yankees.
Impact Both of his hits were singles, and after he got aboard in the fourth inning, he stole second. Santana was left stranded when J.D. Martinez flied out. The 30-year-old Santana is still slashing a poor .145/.224/.261 through 76 plate appearances despite his first multi-hit effort of the year Sunday. The utility man played at first base in this contest, but Bobby Dalbec and Michael Chavis are likely to log more time there while Enrique Hernandez has taken a stronger hold on center field recently.

Retreats to bench Santana is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact After going 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in Wednesday's 8-2 loss, Santana will retreat to the bench in favor of the newly recalled Michael Chavis. Though Christian Arroyo's knee injury paved the way for Santana to pick up four starts in the past five games, the latter has failed to take advantage of his opportunities. Since being promoted from Triple-A Worcester in late May, Santana is slashing .123/.208/.246 with a 27.8 percent strikeout rate across 72 plate appearances.

Opportunities pick up Santana will start in center field and lead off Wednesday in Tampa Bay, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Impact Santana will stick in the lineup for the fourth time in five games, with all of his starts coming in center field. He's largely benefited from the continued absence of Christian Arroyo (lower leg), with Santana finding more work in center field while Enrique Hernandez fills in for Arroyo at second base. Santana has gone 3-for-12 with a pair of walks and a stolen base over his last three starts, but he might need to provide a little more offense to ensure he remains a near-everyday player once Arroyo returns to action.
