The Milwaukee Brewers have designated right-hander Cam Robinson for assignment to make room for outfielder Raimel Tapia on the 40-man roster. Robinson, who was ranked as the No. 19 prospect in the Brewers system by Baseball America, has struggled with command issues throughout his professional career, including an 18.5% walk rate in 2023. He will now be available to all 29 other clubs via trade or waiver claim.
The Milwaukee Brewers have added outfield depth by signing Raimel Tapia, who hit .264 with a home run and 10 runs batted in over 39 games with the Boston Red Sox before being designated for assignment and ultimately released. Meanwhile, Wade Miley is set to rejoin the starting rotation on Saturday after a one-and-done rehab assignment, while Eric Lauer struggled in his second appearance for Class AAA Nashville. Abner Uribe, one of the Brewers' most exciting pitching prospects, has been promoted to Nashville.
Outfielder Raimel Tapia, who was released by the Boston Red Sox on Sunday, has signed a major league deal with the Milwaukee Brewers. Tapia played well during his time with the Red Sox, hitting .264 with one homer and 10 RBIs in 39 games. Despite attempts to trade him, the Red Sox ultimately released Tapia, allowing the Brewers to sign him for the major league minimum.
The Boston Red Sox designated Raimel Tapia for assignment to make room for Christian Arroyo's return from the injured list, demonstrating their faith in outfielder Jarren Duran. Duran appreciated the gesture and expressed his confidence in the team. Manager Alex Cora stressed that Duran will not become a part-time player for Boston, as he is too valuable to the ballclub. The Red Sox will face the Guardians in Cleveland on Tuesday.
Infielder Christian Arroyo returned to the Boston Red Sox's active roster after a month-long stay on the Injured List with a right hamstring strain. The Red Sox designated outfielder Raimel Tapia for assignment to open a spot on the 26-man roster, rather than optioning Jarren Duran to Triple A Worcester. The move surprised many as Tapia was the team's best pinch-hitter off the bench, with a .308 average in such situations. The Red Sox intend to move players around and maximize the roster's versatility.
The Boston Red Sox activated infielder Christian Arroyo from the injured list and designated utility man Raimel Tapia for assignment. Arroyo had been out for almost a month due to a hamstring strain but was hitting .458 in the 11 games before the injury. Tapia hit .264 in 39 appearances for the Sox. The Red Sox could also soon see the return of Adam Duvall, who hit a home run in Triple-A on Sunday after injuring his wrist in April.
The Boston Red Sox have designated outfielder Raimel Tapia for assignment and reinstated infielder Christian Arroyo from the injured list. Tapia, who signed a minor league deal with the Red Sox last winter, has appeared in 39 games this season, batting .264/.333/.368 with a homer, four doubles, a triple, and six stolen bases. With above-average contact and speed but a lack of power, Tapia has been a solid fourth outfielder in Boston, but his lefty bat may not have been an optimal fit for the team's all-left-handed-hitting outfield mix.
Despite a late rally, the Atlanta Braves lost 5-2 to the Boston Red Sox. Dylan Lee got the Braves' bullpen game off to a good start, but Boston cracked the scoreboard in the fourth. Ronald Acuña Jr. hit a monstrous homer to cut the deficit to 2-1, and Eddie Rosario delivered a single to tie the game. However, Raimel Tapia doubled to right scoring Jarren Duran to put Boston back in front 3-2, and Raisel Iglesias allowed a two-run homer to Triston Casas in the ninth to extend the lead to 5-2.
Raimel Tapia, the Boston Red Sox's fourth outfielder, had a hilarious response to a wacky inning during the team's victory over the Los Angeles Angels. The inning saw Angels catcher Matt Thaiss called for two catcher's interference penalties, resulting in three Red Sox runs. Tapia hit a rocket off the bat that would have made a hole in the Green Monster if Thaiss hadn't interfered with him. Despite being a limited at-bat player, Tapia has been batting .333 with one home run and three RBIs this season.
With Adam Duvall sidelined due to a fractured left wrist, Fantasy Baseball managers can consider picking up outfielders like Jorge Soler, Austin Hays, Jarred Kelenic, Trevor Larnach, and Mauricio Dubon to replace his production. Soler is the best bet for power, while Kelenic offers 20-20 upside. Tapia and Refsnyder are likely to replace Duvall in the Red Sox lineup.
Kutter Crawford will start the fourth game of the season for the Red Sox, filling in for injured pitchers Garrett Whitlock and Brayan Bello. Wyatt Mills has been shut down from throwing due to elbow inflammation, but the issue is believed to be muscular rather than structural. Connor Wong is expected to be ready for Opening Day after recovering from a left hamstring strain. Raimel Tapia is battling for a depth role in the outfield and could see playing time in center field to increase his chances of making the roster.
