Manager Alex Cora revealed Sunday that Mayer will miss the rest of the season with a wrist injury that requires surgery, per Christopher Smith of Mass Live. It is expected to be a three-month recovery period, meaning he will at least be available for spring training ahead of the 2026 campaign.

BOSTON — Red Sox rookie Marcelo Mayer will undergo season-ending surgery on his sprained right wrist. The recovery is expected to be three months and so he should be ready for spring training 2026, manager Alex Cora said. The 22-year-old infielder received an anti-inflammation injection Aug. 2, but it didn’t work the way the Red Sox had hoped.
