Verdugo went 0-for-4 with a walk in Friday's 8-1 win over Baltimore.

EDGE Analysis

The outfielder was away from the team for five days while attending the birth of his child. Verdugo wasn't able to do much in his return to the lineup. He has a .276/.342/.424 slash line with 11 home runs, 41 RBI, 66 runs scored and five stolen bases through 444 plate appearances. With Kyle Schwarber coming off the injured list Friday, Verdugo and Jarren Duran could see reductions in playing time in a suddenly crowded Boston outfield.
