Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) – Prior to Monday’s commencement of a four- game series with the White Sox, the Boston Red Sox activated first baseman\/outfielder Mike Carp from the 15-day disabled list.<\/p>\n
Carp landed on the DL at the beginning of June with a broken right foot. In 33 games prior to the setback, the 28-year-old hit just .214 with five doubles and six RBI.<\/p>\n
Carp appeared in seven rehab games with Triple-A Pawtucket, hitting .238 (5- for-21) with a home run and three RBI.<\/p>\n
To make room on the 25-man roster, the Sox optioned infielder Jonathan Herrera to the PawSox.<\/p>\n
“That was a difficult conversation. We clearly view him as a major leaguer and expect he’ll be back at some point,” said Boston manager John Farrell after the move was made.<\/p>\n
Herrera, 29, has appeared in 42 games for the Red Sox this season, batting .233 with nine RBI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
