5/15/24 Red Sox lineup: Vaughn Grissom sits as David Hamilton gets start at 2B. Vaughn Grissom, who's yet to get untracked at the plate since being activated from the IL earlier this month, is out of the lineup as the Red Sox continue their series at Fenway with the Tampa Bay Rays. Grissom will sit Wednesday night, with David Hamilton at second base for the Red Sox. “He'll play three out of four (in this series) and then we have the weekend,” said manager Alex Cora.

5/14/24 Vaughn Grissom spends bulk of time in catch-up mode with Red Sox after late start to season. “Physically, he's not even close to where he should be,” Sox manager Alex Cora said. Grissom said he has yet to regain his appetite from his illness, but he's still trying to force himself to consume protein and carbs (lots of protein shakes and steak) so he can take on weight and build strength. “Feeling weak out there, but getting it back,” Grissom said. With the loss of weight and strength, Grissom acknowledged that his bat has felt heavy — preventing him from having the same “whip” and life in his swing that he felt through the offseason and into the start of spring training.

5/03/24 Why Vaughn Grissom's Return From IL Could Be Game-Changer For Red Sox. The Boston Red Sox can't expect Vaughn Grissom to be their savior. Grissom, acquired in an offseason trade from the Atlanta Braves, has just 236 career MLB plate appearances — with mixed results — and remains a work in progress defensively at age 23. The keystone has been a revolving door for several years — basically since Dustin Pedroia's career wound down — and it's been a huge pain point early in 2024. The Red Sox entered Friday ranked dead-last in fWAR at second base, with their minus-1.5 mark on its own island.
