Back in action Tuesday
Contreras (wrist) is starting at first base and batting cleanup Tuesday against the Orioles, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Análisis
The veteran slugger was held out of Sunday's starting nine due to a nagging hand/wrist injury, but he's good to go after Monday's team off day. Contreras was on fire over the second half of May, collecting six extra-base hits (three home runs), 10 RBI and a .408/.463/.694 slash line over his last 14 games of the month.

Getting day off due to wrist issue
Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said that Contreras is being held out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians while he manages a lingering wrist/hand injury, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Análisis
Since the Red Sox don't play Monday, sending Contreras to the bench Sunday will give the 34-year-old two full days off to recover. Tracy didn't seem overly concerned about the wrist issue, and Contreras is expected to be back in the starting nine Tuesday. Mickey Gasper will spell Contreras at first base Sunday.

Análisis

Mickey Gasper will shift to first base while Carlos Narvaez picks up a start behind the plate in the series finale at Cleveland.
