Anyone who has watched Alex Bregman’s first seven games back in the Red Sox lineup can see clearly that he’s not 100%. In the eyes of the club, that’s the price that has to be paid for his accelerated return.

He became the first Red Sox player — ever — to strike out four times in consecutive games, doing so Monday and Tuesday.

Ortiz, the son of Red Sox legend and Hall of Famer David Ortiz, was promoted from the Florida Complex League Red Sox to Low-A Salem. In 51 games, Ortiz had a slash line of 273/.384/.689. The 21-year-old can play first and third base, and made 38 starts at first with the other 13 coming at third.

Harper became the eighth active player to reach the milestone after sending Red Sox starter Lucas Giolito's pitch 439 feet, his longest and hardest hit of the season.

Mayer kept the fifth inning alive against Phillies lefty Jesús Luzardo with a two-out walk, then came around to score when Romy Gonzalez helped the Red Sox flip a 5-0 deficit into a 6-5 lead with a grand slam to left field. After the inning, he was replaced at third base by Abraham Toro.

The Boston Red Sox have been talked about plenty ahead of the trade deadline with nothing really to show for it yet. That isn’t surprising. The trade deadline is still over a week away and will pass on July 31st.
