Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story will be placed on the 10-day injured list, according to a Saturday report from the Boston Globe.
The publication also indicated that utility player Nick Sogard will be called up from Triple-A Worcester to take Story’s place on the roster.
The 33-year-old Story has reportedly been managing a minor groin strain throughout much of the current season.
This season, he has posted a .206 batting average with three home runs and 19 RBIs across 41 games, while his six defensive errors tie him for the second-highest total in the American League entering Saturday’s games.
Throughout his career with the Colorado Rockies and Red Sox, Story has maintained a .262 batting average with 207 home runs and 655 RBIs over 1,106 games.
The 28-year-old Sogard has appeared in 61 games over the past two seasons with Boston.
This season with Worcester, he has recorded a .269 batting average along with five home runs and 23 RBIs in 36 games.
