Red Sox outfielder/designated hitter J.D. Martinez is not in the lineup for Game 1 of the team's doubleheader against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday, and he is unlikely to play in Game 2, according to a report from Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Martinez left Thursday's game and was out on Friday due to back spasms. (Jen McCaffrey on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

According to McCaffrey, Martinez is day-to-day, and the team is hopeful that he will not need an IL stint. Look for an update on his status on Sunday.
