The Red Sox snap a three-game skid with a 2-1 series win over the Diamondbacks — their first in a while — but the celebration is short-lived as they cut ties with 18-year-old pitcher Angel Lopez, who signed for just $10K back in 2025. Lopez, one of 11 DSL players released, showed promise with strikeouts but struggled with walks and efficiency, a common outcome in developmental leagues. Meanwhile, Rafael Devers — once a Red Sox phenom now heading to the Giants — returns to Fenway this weekend, sparking nostalgia and curiosity among fans. With the Sox at 68-59 and chasing a wild-card spot, they’ll need to bounce back fast from Arizona and manage injuries ahead of San Francisco’s visit.
