RHP Brayan Bello (Right forearm tightness)
Expected return: Feb. 20

Bello has been shut down from throwing due to soreness in his right forearm. The club has instructed Bello to back off from throwing until Monday. Red Sox manager Alex Cora expressed confidence the pitcher doesn't have a significant injury. Bello first felt the soreness after his most recent side session. (Last updated: Feb. 17)

2B/SS Trevor Story (Right UCL surgery)
Expected return: July or after

Upon arriving to Spring Training, Story said he hopes to return at some point during the second half of the season. On Jan. 9, Story underwent an internal bracing procedure of the right ulnar collateral ligament. This procedure is not as invasive as Tommy John surgery, which is why Story has a chance to play in '23. His indefinite loss is significant for a Boston team that lost another key middle infielder to free agency this offseason in Xander Bogaerts. Kiké Hernández will be Boston's starting shortstop, with Christian Arroyo getting the nod at second base. (Last updated: Feb. 16)
