Sat Jul 16 2022 | 18:48 | Trevor Story Placed On Injured List With Hand Contusion |
The Boston Red Sox have placed second baseman Trevor Story (hand) on the 10-day injured list with a right hand contusion. The team called up catcher Connor Wong in a corresponding move. Story was hit on his right hand by a pitch during this past Tuesday's game and he hasn't played since. X-rays came back negative, but his hand clearly hasn't fully healed quite yet. The move to the injured list is retroactive to July 13, meaning he will be first eligible to come off the injured list next Saturday. In the meantime, fellow middle infielder Jeter Downs should continue to strike out in his place. |

Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (hand) will miss his second straight game on Thursday as the team takes on right-hander Drew Rasmussen and the Tampa Bay Rays. Story was hit in his right hand by a pitch during Tuesday's game. While X-rays came back negative, he is still dealing with some soreness. Red Sox manager Alex Cora stated that the hope is that Story can avoid a stint on the injured list and return this weekend. Meanwhile, Jeter Downs will be making his second consecutive start at second base after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout on Wednesday. |

Sun Jul 3 2022 | 13:46 | J.D. Martinez, Trevor Story Sitting Out On Sunday |
Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez and second baseman Trevor Story are both getting the day off on Sunday as the team closes out its three-game series against the Chicago Cubs. Christian Arroyo will be covering second base for the game while Franchy Cordero will be slotting in at designated hitter. Martinez has been struggling lately, going just 1-for-21 across his last five games. However, he still owns a strong .307/.377/.487 slash line on the year. Story, meanwhile, has been stuck in a near season-long slump as he's slashed just .222/.298/.411 with 12 homers over 71 games on the year. |

Wed Jun 29 2022 | 15:48 | Trevor Story Resting Wednesday Against Toronto |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. It will be Story's first day off since June 10. In 24 games in June, he's hitting .232 (22-for-95) with three home runs, 15 RBI and 31 strikeouts in 103 plate appearances. Story has struggled with a .224 average overall in his first year with Boston, but he does have 12 home runs, 52 RBI, 41 runs scored and 10 stolen bases to make up for it. With Story out Wednesday, Yolmer Sanchez will start at the keystone and hit eighth against Jays right-hander Alek Manoah. It will be Sanchez's first game action in the majors since 2020, when he went 5-for-16 with a solo home run in 11 games for the Chicago White Sox. |

Thu Jun 9 2022 | 18:33 | Xander Bogaerts, Trevor Story Sitting Thursday |
Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts and second baseman Trevor Story are both out of the starting lineup on Thursday against the Los Angeles Angels. Bogaerts returned to the lineup on Wednesday after leaving Tuesday's game early with right shoulder tightness. As far as we know, both he and Story are getting regular rest days on Thursday. Jonathan Arauz is starting at shortstop and is hitting ninth, while Christian Arroyo will get the nod at the keystone and bat leadoff against Angels right-hander Shohei Ohtani. The matchup isn't ideal, but Arroyo will have some deep-sleeper appeal in DFS out of the leadoff spot. He's hitting just .188 (16-for-85) with three home runs, 10 RBI and two stolen bases on the season. |

Sat May 28 2022 | 11:10 | Trevor Story Not In Game 1 Lineup |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story will take a seat for Game 1 of a doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday. Fantasy managers will unfortunately have to shift the hot-hitting Story to their benches for Saturday's matinee affair. The 29-year-old has hit .313/.395/.969 with seven home runs, 21 RBI, 11 runs scored and two stolen bases in his last eight games to raise his season slash line to .227/.315/.455. Story has nine total home runs, 37 RBI, 25 runs scored and six stolen bases in 40 games. He should be back in the lineup for Game 2. Christian Arroyo is at the keystone and is hitting sixth in Game 1 against Orioles right-hander Jordan Lyles. Arroyo is hitting only .190/.224/.302 with two homers, six RBI and a steal in 68 plate appearances over 24 games for the BoSox. |

Fri May 27 2022 | 08:48 | Trevor Story Remains Hot In Thursday's Blowout Win |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story continued his hot streak at the plate in the team's 16-7 win over the Chicago White Sox on Thursday. He went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk, a stolen base, four RBI and two runs scored. Story has been one of the most dominant batters in fantasy over the past few weeks. Since May 16, he's hit eight of his nine home runs on the year while racking up 22 RBI and three stolen bases. The 29-year-old struggled to the tune of a .224/.297/.299 slash line in April, but his recent hot stretch has elevated his slash line to .232/.312/.464 on the year. |

Thu May 19 2022 | 23:56 | Trevor Story Explodes With Three-Homer Game |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story busted loose at the dish on Thursday night by smacking three home runs as his club defeated the Mariners 12-6. He slugged a pair of two-run bombs off starter George Kirby and later added a three-run tater to finish the game going 4-for-4 with five runs scored and seven RBI while also adding a stolen base for good measure. Red Sox fans and fantasy managers alike have long awaited this breakout performance as the 29-year-old now sits with five home runs, 19 runs, 23 RBI, five steals, and a .230 BA through 33 games. Hopefully this game will put an end to his sluggish start to the 2022 campaign as there is still plenty of season left to make up for his early losses. |

Tue May 17 2022 | 12:32 | Trevor Story Homers, Steals A Base Monday |
Boston Red Sox infielder Trevor Story had a big game on Monday against the Houston Astros, going 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, and a stolen base. Story has now reached base in each of his last six games, with two home runs in that span and one steal apiece in each of his last three contests. His .200/.282/.595 slash line in 115 at-bats this season surely leaves plenty to be desired, but the last week has proven that Story still has plenty of ability to be an all-category producer for fantasy managers. |

Tue May 10 2022 | 16:27 | Trevor Story Bumped Down To Sixth For Tuesday's Game |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story will be batting sixth in the lineup for Tuesday's game against right-hander Kyle Wright and the Atlanta Braves. Story batted sixth in six of his first eight games this year, but after that stretch, he found himself in either the leadoff spot or the No. 2 spot in the order for 16 straight games. For Tuesday's contest, Enrique Hernandez will be leading off with Rafael Devers behind him. Story is batting just .194 on the year, but he's been especially struggling at the plate in May. Through seven games this month, he's gone 2-for-26 with 14 strikeouts. |

Thu May 5 2022 | 09:29 | Trevor Story Doubles Twice On Wednesday |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story notched his third multi-hit game of the year against the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday. He went 2-for-5 with a pair of doubles and three RBI in the game. Story is off to an extremely underwhelming start to his Red Sox career. Through 20 games, he's slashing .221/.307/.312 with seven doubles, nine RBI and eight runs. He's still searching for his first home run in a Red Sox jersey. The 29-year-old has some concerning underlying metrics, including a 32% hard-hit rate, down from 42.6% last year. He has an xSLG of just .343, which ranks in the bottom 18% of the league. Hopefully Story can get things together soon. Fantasy managers should resist trading him for pennies on the dollar while his season-long stats look as ugly as they do right now. |

Mon Apr 25 2022 | 18:14 | Trevor Story Getting The Day Off Monday |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story is getting the day off on Monday as the team opens up a four-game road series against the Toronto Blue Jays. Christian Arroyo will be manning the keystone for the night. Story is currently in the midst of a four-game hitting streak, but we've yet to see him really take off at the plate for his new team. He has just three extra-base hits on the year, all of which have been doubles. He's slugging .298 right now and he has a hard-hit rate of just 27.3%. We'll see if he can start producing more power after he returns from Monday's day off. |

Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (head) is playing second base and leading off for the Red Sox on Thursday against Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. Story was hit in the head by a pitch on Wednesday, but he passed the league's concussion protocol and will hit leadoff for the first time with Boston. The 29-year-old is still searching for his first home run and stolen base this year and is sporting a 33.3% strikeout rate through his first eight games. Outfielder/designated hitter J.D. Martinez was pulled from the game with groin tightness on Wednesday and was expected to miss Thursday's contest, although he's not expected to need a trip to the injured list. Rafael Devers is the DH against Toronto, while Bobby Dalbec will start at third base and Travis Shaw will play first base. |

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story (head) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. He was hit in the head by a pitch on Wednesday, but managed to stay in the game. Story went through concussion protocol after the contest and passed it. Manager Alex Cora mentioned the organization is likely to do further testing on Story. However, it sounds like the plan is for Story to suit up for Thursday's contest. The 29-year-old is off to a slow start this season, but at least he avoided major injury here. |

Tue Apr 19 2022 | 17:41 | Trevor Story Batting Second In Tuesday's Game |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story will be batting out of the No. 2 spot in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Yusei Kikuchi and the Toronto Blue Jays. Story has played in six games so far this year. In five of those games, he hit out of the No. 6 spot in the order. The only outlier was last Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers, when he batted third. The 29-year-old is off to a slow start to his Red Sox career. He's slashing just .250/.280/.292 and still searching for his first home run. We'll see if a shift toward the top of the lineup can help get him going. |

Mon Apr 18 2022 | 08:57 | Trevor Story Out Of The Lineup On Monday |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story is not in the starting lineup for Monday's Patriots' Day game against the Minnesota Twins. Christian Arroyo is getting the start at second base and batting sixth in the game. It's been a rough start to the year for Story. He missed some time last week due to an illness and he's struggled offensively when he's been in the lineup. Over six games, he's gone 6-for-24 with only one extra-base hit (a double) and seven strikeouts. Take note that Monday's game is an early one with an 11:10 AM EST start time, so if you're in a daily lock league, make sure to slide Story out of your lineup soon. |

Wed Apr 13 2022 | 11:27 | Trevor Story Returns To The Lineup |
Boston Red Sox infielder Trevor Story (illness) will be back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This comes as a surprise considering manager Alex Cora mentioned Story was likely to miss this game. However, it sounds like Story is well enough to play, so fantasy managers should make sure he's back in their lineups. He'll bat third and play second base versus lefty Eduardo Rodriguez on Wednesday. |

Tue Apr 12 2022 | 18:13 | Trevor Story Expected To Remain Out On Wednesday |
Updating a previous report, Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (illness) likely won't be able to return to the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. Story has missed each of the team's last three games with a stomach illness. It was initially reported that he was expected to return on Wednesday, but that is no longer the case. Jonathan Arauz has started at second base in three straight games now and has gone 0-for-7 at the plate over the three-game stretch. The Red Sox are off on Thursday, then the team begins a four-game series with the Minnesota Twins on Friday. It seems likely that Story will be back for Friday's game, but make sure to stay tuned for further updates. |

Tue Apr 12 2022 | 10:58 | Trevor Story Remains Out Tuesday |
Boston Red Sox second baseman Trevor Story (illness) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday for his third straight game with food poisoning. He has traveled with the team to Detroit, though, and there's a chance he'll return to action on Wednesday. Jonathan Arauz will continue to fill in at the keystone and is batting ninth on Tuesday against Detroit Tigers left-hander Tyler Alexander. Story is off to a slow start in just two games with his new team, going 2-for- with a double, a walk and two strikeouts, but he should still be considered one of the better fantasy shortstops that will also gain second base eligibility this season. Arauz will be a low-upside DFS dart throw again on Tuesday. |

Tue Apr 12 2022 | 08:21 | Trevor Story Likely To Return On Wednesday |

According to Chris Cotillo of Mass Live, Story is back with the team ahead of Tuesday's game, but he is not expected to play until Wednesday. Jonathan Arauz started at second base for each of the team's last two games with Story out and he went 0-for-5 over the two-game stretch. Story struggled over his first two games in a Red Sox jersey, hitting 1-for-8 with a double, a walk and a strikeout. We'll see if he can settle in at the plate once he's back. |
