Santana was removed from Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays with an apparent leg injury, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
He struggled to get up after diving for a ball in left field, then limped off to the clubhouse with what looked like a left leg injury. Alex Verdugo entered the game to replace Santana, who was playing just his second game after returning from a strained left quadriceps.

Santana went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Monday's win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Santana was activated from the injured list prior to Monday's contest, and he didn't skip a beat at the dish. He doubled home a pair of runs in the top of the second and belted a solo homer in the fourth for his fourth homer of the campaign. Santana will aim to continue this type of production moving forward after slashing an uninspiring .178/.239/.337 through 32 contests.

The Red Sox activated Santana (quadriceps) from the 10-day injured list Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
EDGE Analysis
Boston will swap Santana on the active roster for Christian Arroyo, who will head to the IL after straining his hamstring in Sunday's loss to the Yankees. Manager Alex Cora had named Arroyo the team's primary first baseman prior to Sunday's contest, but that role could now fall to a healthy Santana, who will likely fill the larger side of a platoon at the position with Bobby Dalbec. Before heading to the IL shortly before the All-Star break with a quad strain, Santana was slashing .167/.231/.292 with three home runs and three stolen bases over 104 plate appearances this season.

Santana (quadriceps) is expected to rejoin the Red Sox on Monday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Santana began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Worcester on Friday, and he went 0-for-3 with a run, a walk and a strikeout in Friday's appearance. He'll be able to return after a short rehab stint since he's only been sidelined since July 6, and he could help fill in if Christian Arroyo (hamstring) is forced to miss additional time.

Santana (quadriceps) will likely rejoin the Red Sox within the next couple days, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Santana (quadriceps) reported to Triple-A Worcester on Friday to begin a rehab assignment, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Santana (quadriceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Boston manager Alex Cora said Santana (quadriceps) may need to be placed on the injured list, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Santana went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and five RBI Thursday against the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Santana is on the bench for Monday's game against the Royals, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.
