Scouting Report: Roman Quinn
Chicago Cubs | CF
Overall
Summary
Roman Anthony, Boston Red Sox outfielder, suffered a right-hand/wrist ligament sprain while swinging against the Detroit Tigers on May 12, 2026. Initially diagnosed as day-to-day with negative X-rays, Anthony was cleared to begin hitting progression on May 18 but experienced soreness during rehab swings, forcing the Red Sox to shut him down from batting activity. The team has halted all bat swings until at least May 23 (after an off-day), pushing any realistic return to the active roster further into June. Interim manager Chad Tracy emphasized the need for grip strength recovery before Anthony can resume full activities. The setback is particularly concerning given the Red Sox's struggling offense and Anthony's status as a young star player.
Strengths
- Negative X-rays indicate no fracture
- Initial diagnosis was day-to-day suggesting minor injury
