Verdugo was placed on the bereavement list Thursday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

Verdugo must be away from the team for a minimum of three days and no more than seven days, so he could return Sunday at the earliest. The Red Sox didn't add an outfielder in his stead, so it will mean more work for Jarren Duran and Rob Refsnyder in the short term.
