BOS • Catcher • #12

MassLive.com’s Chris Cotillo says it’s a $1.375 million deal. Wong had a disastrous 2025, hitting just .190/.262/.238 with seven RBI in 188 plate appearances, and there was thought the Red Sox might try to upgrade behind Carlos Narváez. Still, there just aren’t many quality backups available at the moment, and Wong settled for $600,000 more than the MLB minimum in his first year of arbitration. He might bounce back somewhat offensively, but he’ll definitely take a backseat to Narváez when it comes to playing time.

According to the Cleveland Clinic, a carpal boss is a bony overgrowth or lump on the back of the hand or wrist. The problem might have contributed to Wong’s downfall this season, as he went homerless while batting .190//262/.238 in 188 plate appearances. Although he’ll be relatively inexpensive as a first-time arbitration-eligible player, here’s a good chance the Red Sox will move on from him this winter.

Wong was Boston’s starting catcher before suffering a fractured finger when he was hit by a swing in April, but since returning, he’s taken a backseat to Carlos Estévez, something that doesn’t figure to change any time soon. A .280/333/.425 hitter last year, he’s 8-for-55 with no extra-base hits or RBI this season.

Wong is back after missing close to a month with a fractured left finger. The 28-year-old should see the bulk of the playing time behind the plate and is worth a look in two-catcher leagues for those who need help at the backstop position.

Wong has caught three times for Worcester, though he’s yet to do so on consecutive days while still dealing with some soreness related to the fractured finger he suffered a month ago. He’s 4-for-11 so far.

Cora noted that Wong hasn’t done much catching yet, but he has been hitting off of a tee and progressing well in his recovery. It sounds like he shouldn’t require an extended minor league rehab assignment, so fantasy managers should have Wong back in their lineups at some point in early May.
