Lin was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brock Holt (scratched cornea) and Dustin Pedroia (knee) are both on the injured list, so Lin will serve as Boston's utility infielder while Eduardo Nunez gets starts at second base in the short term.

Lin was optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lin has performed capably enough when called on in a reserve role for the Red Sox over the last two seasons, hitting .256/.348/.380 in 62 games. He's likely looking at a similar situation again this season.

Lin went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and three RBI in Tuesday's spring win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Lin could not have asked for a better start to spring training as he is 7-for-16 with four runs, five RBI, three doubles and a home run through six games. The 25-year-old had a respectable .744 OPS in 37 games for the Red Sox in 2018, and is coming off the best minor league season of his career with a .307/.362/.448 slash line at Triple-A Pawtucket.

EDGE Analysis

With rosters expanding, Lin will join the Red Sox for the stretch run to provide infield depth. The 24-year-old posted a solid .307/.362/.448 line with the PawSox this season, though he's struggled to a .182/.265/.227 line in 20 games with the big club.

Lin is dealing with sore ribs, Christoper Smith of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lin has not played the last two games for Triple-A Pawtucket due to the injury, which is presumably the reason why he wasn't called up to Boston to replace the injured Ian Kinsler. The Red Sox instead called up Tony Renda to fill in for Kinsler.

Lin was sent down to Triple-A Pawtucket on Tuesday, Sean McAdam of the BostonSportsJournal.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lin was cast off the active roster in order to make room for the recently acquired Ian Kinsler from the Angels on Monday. Since there's no real need for another utility man on the Red Sox's roster, don't be surprised if Lin remains at the Triple-A level until rosters expand in September.

The Red Sox recalled Lin from Triple-A Pawtucket on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Lin assumes the active roster spot of Rafael Devers (hamstring), who was placed on the 10-day disabled list in a corresponding move. Though Lin will be an option to replace Devers at third base, the Red Sox may opt to take a committee approach to the position, as Eduardo Nunez, Brock Holt and Blake Swihart are all capable of manning on the hot corner as needed. Swihart will receive the nod at third base in the series finale Sunday against the Twins, according to Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe.

EDGE Analysis

The Red Sox needed to clear a roster spot for Tuesday's starter, Drew Pomeranz, and Lin made sense, given he was serving in a deep utility role. He will likely return to the majors to fill a similar role at some point this season.

Lin was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on Thursday, Jason Mastrodonato of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lin has appeared in 16 games with the Red Sox in 2018, as he's put together an uninspiring .162/.244/.216 slash line with two extra-base hits and one RBI. The 24-year-old figures to be used as a utility man after Rafael Devers (shoulder) landed on the 10-day disabled list.

Lin was optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket on Friday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

The move makes room for new acquisition Steve Pearce. Lin has hit just .162/.244/.216 in 16 games for the Red Sox this season.
