The Boston Red Sox have been missing Alex Bregman in the middle of the lineup since May but it sounds like there's at least a chance that he couls be days away from returning from his quad injury.

“He was OK. A lot of pitches in the middle of the zone,” manager Alex Cora said before Boston’s game against the Reds on Monday. “Command wasn’t great. So we’ve just gotta keep working.” Houck threw 42 of his 65 pitches (64.6%) for strikes.
