Scouting Report

Updated May 19, 2026

Romy González, Boston Red Sox utility infielder, has missed the entire 2026 season due to shoulder surgery performed in March 2025. However, recent reports indicate positive recovery progress. As of May 2026, González has begun throwing for the first time since surgery and is expected to swing a bat the following week, with an anticipated return date around June 12, 2026. In 2025, González posted a career year with a .305/.343/.483 slash line, .826 OPS, 9 home runs, 53 RBIs, 6 stolen bases, 23 doubles, and 47 runs scored across 96 games, earning 2.0 WAR. He is noted as a lefty killer and provides valuable depth across the infield.
