Bregman made an instant impact for Boston in his first game action in nearly six weeks. The 31-year-old third baseman’s return coincides with an extended hot streak for the Red Sox, who no longer look like potential sellers at the upcoming trade deadline.

Fitts returns to the majors to bolster Boston’s bullpen this weekend after Hunter Dobbins suffered a torn ACL during Friday’s series opener against the Rays. The 25-year-old righty might end up pitching in relief initially, but should slot back into the Red Sox’ rotation mix coming out of the All-Star break.

Dobbins suffered the season-ending knee injury during Friday’s start against the Rays. He previously tore his ACL while playing high school football. The 25-year-old righty is facing a lengthy rehabilitation process following surgery, but there’s a chance he’s able to make it back to Boston’s rotation at some point in the early stages of next season. He finishes his abbreviated rookie campaign with a solid 4.13 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 45/17 K/BB ratio across 61 innings (13 appearances, 11 starts). It’s a tough hit to Boston’s rotation depth for the next few months, but it’s easy to envision Dobbins returning next season as a mid-rotation arm.

It’s become extremely common in recent years for clubs to give a player a quick break following their return from the injured list, especially if they skipped a minor league rehab assignment. Bregman takes a seat on Saturday after going 1-for-4 with a double on Friday in his return to Boston’s lineup following a six-week absence recovering from a quad strain. He’ll likely be back at the hot corner for Sunday’s first-half finale at Fenway Park. It’ll be Marcelo Mayer taking over at third base in this one.

No surprise here after Arenado was removed from Friday’s contest against Atlanta with a sprained right index finger. The exact severity of the issue remains a bit murky, but fantasy managers shouldn’t expect to see him again until after next week’s All-Star break. He’s been battling finger and shoulder issues for the last few weeks. It’ll be rookie Thomas Saggese taking over at the hot corner on Saturday afternoon in his absence.

No word yet on the severity of the strain, which will determine how much time Riley winds up missing. It’s a significant loss for Atlanta, and fantasy managers, if he requires a lengthy absence. The 28-year-old slugging third baseman suffered the injury during Friday’s showdown against the Cardinals. He closes out the first half hitting .274/.324/.441 with 14 homers, 48 RBI and two steals in 408 plate appearances over 93 games. It’s theoretically possible he’ll make it back to Atlanta before the end of July, if the strain winds up being on the milder end of the spectrum. There should be some much-needed clarity on his status at some point in the coming days.

Arenado has been battling through lingering shoulder and finger issues recently, so the All-Star break comes at an opportune time. The 34-year-old defensive wizard figures to sit out St. Louis’ final two first-half games this weekend against Atlanta. It’ll be Nolan Gorman and Thomas Saggese taking over at the hot corner.
