## Resource

Willson Contreras is on track to return soon after a hamstring setback, showing strong signs of recovery with field BP and base running—possibly back as early as Friday. The Red Sox, riding a five-game win streak without him, can afford the luxury of patience, aiming for full health before his return. With playoff contenders like the Yankees looming, his comeback could be a major offensive boost. Rafaela may also return by Sunday, potentially giving Boston two key bats back in time for the postseason push. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
