Bres and AC  lucky that Yoshi didn't tell them to go suck sushi when they showed him where 1B was located.

The Boston Red Sox made a roster move ahead of Wednesday’s finale against the Colorado Rockies as they sent Nate Eaton down to Triple-A Worcester to make room for the return of Masataka Yoshida, according to MassLive's Chris Cotillo. To make room on the 40-man roster, the Red Sox moved right-handed pitcher Nick Burdi from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

Yoshida has missed all of 2025 so far as he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery, but is finally healthy and will be in the lineup tonight as the designated hitter. The left-handed hitter looks to be an addition to a lineup that has been on fire recently.

Eaton, who was called up to the Red Sox after the Rafael Devers trade, appeared in 14 games, hitting .250/.296/.333 to go along with two doubles, an RBI, and three stolen bases. He split his time between third base and the outfield and had been the team’s leadoff hitter for the previous four games.

Burdi, who was placed on the injured list June 3rd due to a right foot contusion, has pitched in four games for Boston, tossing 5 1/3 innings while not allowing a run to score. He had made two rehab outings for Triple-A Worcester in the middle of June but suffered a setback when he felt discomfort in his hip.

With Yoshida officially back what are your predictions for him for the remainder of the season? Join the conversation in the comments.

He will make consistent contact; something the Sox have missed in many key moments this season.

Sushi? I'd rather eat crow.

I really miss all those weak grounders to 2B over all the Ks by others!

His two year BA with the Sox is .285. Doesn't sound like a lot of weak grounders to 2B.
