## Resource

Boston Red Sox fans are buzzing as first baseman Willson Contreras inches closer to returning from his hamstring strain—potentially this Thursday. After last appearing in the lineup against the Yankees on August 30, Contreras has been rehabbing steadily, even taking field batting practice. While a short rehab assignment is still possible, his return could be a game-changer, especially with fellow sidelined player Ceddanne Rafaela also expected back soon. With the team on a five-game win streak, Contreras’ return could supercharge their playoff push and bring back that potent lineup fans have missed.
