Boston Red Sox has good news, Hawker rehab is coming, and Bregman may be back with a class skip

The Boston Red Sox have two major injury news today: right-hand striker Tanner Hawk will start a minor league rehab game as soon as next Thursday, and third baseman Alex Bregman is expected to skip rehab and return to the team before the All-Star Game.

Bregman suffered a right quadriceps strain on May 24 and was originally expected to be sidelined for more than two months given a 10-week injury to his left leg in 2021. However, the recovery exceeded expectations: "The running condition is good," he revealed, "and the ultrasound shows that the recovery from the injury is in line with expectations, and the running intensity is gradually increasing to 50%, and the daily rehabilitation treatment is 12 hours." "

When asked about the rehab schedule, Bregman's response was striking: "It doesn't necessarily need a rehab race, it's about continuing to build leg strength. Is it possible to go straight back? It has not yet been determined. Head coach Alex Cora was open to that: "We have a way for him to adjust his shots here. He has a positive mentality, but needs to be patient. "

The pitcher's rebuilding process was very different, so Hawk moved quickly. Today's bullpen practice pitch was completed with teammate Jarren Duran as the simulator. "It's likely that the rehab will start next Thursday," Korra confirmed, "and the key to seeing his speedball, curveball, and knuckle ball is in good shape." "

Hawker entered the injury list on May 15 due to a right flexor pronator strain, with a 0-3 record and an 8.04 self-blame rate. "Now the body is working smoothly, especially the strength of the arm has increased significantly," he said, "and the abnormal soreness in the elbow was against the norm, so the decisive truce was made." "

If Hawke returns at full health, it will strengthen the starting rotation led by Garrett Crochet.
