Price (wrist) felt strong during Tuesday's bullpen session and is hopeful to come off the injured list soon, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price fired another successful bullpen Tuesday, so the next step figures to be facing live hitters. If all goes well, he could be cleared to return from the IL without completing a rehab assignment, considering he's only been sidelined for two weeks with a wrist injury.

Price (wrist) is scheduled to throw his next bullpen session Tuesday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price apparently endured no complications with his left wrist coming out of Saturday's side session, during which he tossed 30 pitches consisting of fastballs and changeups. He'll likely incorporate more breaking pitches into Tuesday's workout before the Red Sox determine Price's next step. Since he's only been sidelined for two weeks, Price may not require a rehab assignment or simulated game before gaining clearance to re-enter the rotation as soon as Aug. 25 against the Padres.

Price (wrist) was scheduled for a bullpen session Saturday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
There's been no report on how the bullpen session went. It is presumed the Red Sox will see how Price responds before determining his next step, but the left-hander could rejoin the starting rotation this week. With the Red Sox placing Chris Sale (elbow) on the injured list Saturday, Boston will need a starter Tuesday.

Price (wrist) played catch Friday and could throw off a mound in the next few days, Meredith Perri of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price, who hasn't pitched since Aug. 4, will need at least one bullpen session before the Red Sox bring him back to the active roster. The goal, manager Alex Cora said, is to get him on the mound this week and then map out a schedule beyond that.

Price (wrist) played catch Monday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price, who landed on the injured list Thursday with a wrist injury, reported no issues after about 50 throws. While this is a step in the right direction for the southpaw, a clearer timetable for his return likely won't come into focus until he ramps up his throwing.

Price (wrist) has begun doing exercises to regain strength and range of motion in his wrist, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price was placed on the injured list Thursday with the hopes of it being a short stint. Camerato also noted in her report that Price had been dealing with the injury for three or four starts prior to any official move, potentially explaining his 10.59 ERA and 2.18 WHIP in his four most recent appearances.

Price was placed on the injured list Thursday with a TFCC cyst in his left wrist, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
This comes as a bit of a surprise, as there had been no indication that Price was dealing with any injury. The issue could help explain the left-hander's recent struggles, as he's allowed 11 runs on 18 hits (including four home runs) in seven innings over his past two starts. He received a cortisone injection to help alleviate the pain and remains without a timetable for his return; manager Alex Cora said the hope is Price can return sooner rather than later, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. Hector Velazquez was summoned from the minors in a corresponding move, while Brian Johnson is expected to take Price's place in the rotation.

Price (7-5) took the loss against the Yankees on Sunday, pitching 2.2 innings and giving up seven runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out three.
EDGE Analysis
Tasked with preventing a four-game sweep at the hands of Boston's bitter rivals, Price surrendered a run on an Aaron Judge homer in the first inning before getting blitzed for six runs in the third. He retired two of the first three batters in the inning but couldn't get the final out, giving up six straight hits followed by a walk before Alex Cora mercifully made the call to the bullpen. With the defeat, Price has now lost three of his last four outings, compiling a 10.59 ERA in 17 innings over that span. He'll try to turn things around when he faces the Angels in Boston on Friday in his next scheduled start.

The Red Sox reinstated Price from paternity leave ahead of his scheduled start Sunday against the Yankees, Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reliever Colten Brewer was sent down to Triple-A Pawtucket to open up a spot on the active roster for Price, who spent two days on the paternity list. He shouldn't face any restrictions while returning to action on normal rest Sunday in the series finale.

Manager Alex Cora said Price will be activated off the paternity list to start Sunday night against the Yankees, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Price moved to the paternity list Friday after his wife gave birth, but he'll rejoin the Red Sox after two days for his scheduled start Sunday. The veteran southpaw has struggled in his last three outings with 13 runs allowed on 21 hits, including five home runs.
