The Boston Red Sox have welcomed back Masataka Yoshida and now it seems the All-Star outfielder is the odd man out.

After missing 93 games to start the season, Masataka Yoshida wasted no time making an impact in the Red Sox lineup.

The catalyst for the question marks is Hunter Dobbins being on the verge of returning to the rotation. He made a rehab outing back on July 5th for Portland and struck out eight without walking anybody while throwing 62 pitches in five strong innings work. He’s ready!

A soft portion of the schedule, plus two losses in a row from the Seattle Mariners, have the Red Sox in a tie for the third and final wild card spot.

Masataka Yoshida is set to make his 2025 Red Sox debut Wednesday night following a lengthy recovery from offseason shoulder surgery, which will lead to some changes in the Boston outfield.

The schedule-maker handed the Red Sox a gift recently and the Sox knew what do with it. But it's what happens next that will determine their fate.

Lucas Giolito tossed 6.0 scoreless innings against the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday, earning a spot in the Boston Red Sox's history books in the process.
