Red Sox vs. Rays lineups: Vaughn Grissom returns

The Red Sox will finish their season next week, but first they host the Tampa Bay Rays for a three-game weekend series at Fenway Park.

Vaughn Grissom and Ceddanne Rafaela will return for the opener on Friday.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora makes just those two additions to his roster, with Tyler O’Neil and Enmanuel Valdez having the night off. Grissom will line up in sixth, while Rafaela rounds things out in his usual ninth place.

Jarren Duran will keep his spot at the top of the lineup while Trevor Story moves up a few spots. Triston Casas and Connor Wong will take third and fourth place, while Wilyer Abreu and Nick Selbstd will each move down the order. Masataka Yoshida will be fifth.
