# Roman Anthony injury recovery and rehab progress > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/roman-anthony-injury-recovery-and-rehab-progress > Updated: 2026-08-18T20:39:51.000Z. Sources: 11. Developments: 2. Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony has progressed in his recovery from a wrist and hand injury, specifically a partially torn tendon in his right ring finger, which has kept him on the 60-day injured list since early May. After beginning his rehabilitation by hitting against a high-velocity Trajekt pitching machine, Anthony commenced a minor league rehab assignment with the Double-A Portland Sea Dogs. In his debut, he went 2-for-2 with two walks and a two-run home run featuring a 108 mph exit velocity. Following the performance, Anthony stated, “I’m good, I’m good to go.” Anthony continued his progress with the Worcester Red Sox, recently recording a home run and three RBIs. During this period, he addressed media speculation regarding his commitment to rehabilitation, denying claims that his time in Fort Myers was spent on his social life rather than recovery, asserting that he prioritizes his professional standards. As Anthony nears a return to the major leagues, his reintegration presents a roster challenge for the Red Sox. The team faces decisions regarding the lineup, potentially involving players such as Jarren Duran or Mickey Gasper, the latter of whom has seen significant success during a recent five-game winning streak. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-18: Roman Anthony shines in rehab debut with Portland Sea Dogs Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony completed a successful rehab game with the Portland Sea Dogs, hitting a home run as he recovers from a finger injury and discusses the trade of teammate Marcelo Mayer. 9 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/roman-anthony-reacts-to-marcelo-mayer-trade-to-san-francisco-giants ### 2026-08-11: Roman Anthony nears rehab assignment with Boston Red Sox Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony is nearing a minor league rehab assignment after progressing to hitting with a high-velocity Trajekt machine to recover from a wrist injury. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/roman-anthony-nears-rehab-assignment-with-boston-red-sox --- Cite as: Roman Anthony injury recovery and rehab progress.
