Second baseman Christian Arroyo was added to the lineup as a replacement, with Enrique Hernandez moving to center field in Verdugo's stead. Verdugo had previously been managing a hamstring injury, but he has a new issue to contend with heading into Thursday's series finale with Detroit.

Verdugo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk Tuesday against the Tigers.

For the campaign, Verdugo has managed a .314/.379/.520 line with 21 runs scored and 14 RBI across 116 plate appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Verdugo's aching left hamstring kept him out of the lineup for both of the past two games, but he seemingly proved his health in Tuesday's 2-1 win, when he came off the bench to play the final inning of the game in left field. Now that he's back in the lineup, Verdugo will look to continue the hot run at the plate he had enjoyed prior to picking up the hamstring cramp. Over his last three starts, Verdugo recorded seven hits in 14 at-bats.

EDGE Analysis

After exiting Saturday's contest with left hamstring cramping, Verdugo was initially cleared to play Sunday, but the Red Sox decided to exercise some extra caution with the outfielder due to the wet field conditions in Boston for the series finale. Verdugo may still be available off the bench Sunday, and he'll most likely be ready to return to an everyday role in the outfield for the start of Boston's road trip, which begins Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Even with a quick turnaround for Sunday's game -- which starts at 1:10 p.m. ET -- Verdugo looks like he'll be ready to play a full nine innings.

However, it's not yet clear whether the issue will impact Verdugo's availability for Sunday's series finale against Seattle.
