Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters Hicks has a really good shot at being ready to join the club when they kick off a series on Friday against the Blue Jays. The hard-throwing 28-year-old came over earlier this month from the Giants in the Rafael Devers blockbuster and figures to pitch in high-leverage relief spots. He’s been out since early June with right toe inflammation.

Bregman is targeting a return to Boston’s lineup by next month’s All-Star break, which means he’ll likely be ready to kick off a rehab assignment at some point in early July. The 31-year-old third baseman has been out since late May recovering from a quad strain.

Crawford is set to undergo further tests after experiencing more wrist issues. The 29-year-old has been on the shelf since spring training and doesn’t appear close at all to making it back to Boston’s pitching mix following this latest setback.

Thanks to his excellent defense in center, the much-maligned Rafaela has a case for being Boston’s top position player to date. He’s hitting a respectable .255/.303/.407 with seven homers, 28 RBI and 10 steals, and he should be in the mix for a Gold Glove with his work defensively. With playing time less likely to be an issue going forward, he should offer mixed-league value the rest of the way.
