Red Sox SS Trevor Story went to Philadelphia for a third opinion on his sports hernia. "They're getting his opinion and still waiting on that and what he wants to do," Chad Tracy said.
Hearing that Nick Sogard is likely getting called up to join the Boston Red Sox in Atlanta.
The 28-year-old is hitting .269 with 5 HR and 23 RBI in 36 games with Triple-A Worcester this season.
Not sure I knew Trevor Story has been dealing with a groin issue.
Chad Tracy said monitoring it contributed to giving him the day off:
“We got in at 3:30 in the morning and we are always monitoring Trev with the groin and making sure he’s good. We felt like today was an appropriate day to give him off.”

Red Sox players I would trade at the deadline:
Aroldis Chapman
Trevor Story
Sonny Gray
Jarren Duran
After this season, all of them will be 30 years old. Aroldis Chapman is a top 2 closer in the league right now, and would net a solid return from a contending team.
