Marcelo Mayer to Undergo Season-Ending Wrist Surgery

Boston Red Sox infielder Marcelo Mayer announced Sunday he will undergo season-ending surgery on his right wrist due to a tear that did not improve with an anti-inflammatory injection. The 22-year-old, who injured his wrist in late July, is expected to have a three-month recovery, aiming to be ready for spring training. Mayer, drafted fourth overall in 2021, batted .228 with four homers and 10 RBIs in 44 games this season, primarily at third base.
