Connor Wong signed a one-year, $1.375MM contract with the Red Sox for 2026, avoiding arbitration and expected to serve as a backup catcher.
Right-hander Beau Brieske has been on Triple-A Toledo's injured list since July 10 due to elbow soreness, and Tigers GM Jeff Greenberg told reporters (including the Detroit News' Chris McCosky) yesterday that the reliever had a setback during a recent bullpen session. As a result, Brieske will be shut down for the next 4-6 weeks, meaning that his 2025 season is all but officially over, barring both a deep Tigers postseason run and a rather improbable activation to a playoff roster.
