Red Sox manager Ron Roenicke told reporters Tuesday that Alex Verdugo (back) has not been able to progress as quickly as hoped. (Chris Cotillo on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The main reason for this is due to spring training and the regular season being suspended by the coronavirus pandemic. Verdugo is able to run and swing a bat without issue but hasn't been able to resume baseball-related activities due to social distancing. Still, this time off should ultimately be a good thing for him as Verdugo was recovering from a stress fracture in his back that was suffered last August.
