What happened
The move came as Boston faced the Seattle Mariners in a three‑game series, prompting a swift roster shuffle. The addition also coincided with the reinstatement of veteran utility man Isiah Kiner‑Falefa, giving the club additional bench depth as the season edges toward its final stretch. CBS Sports ran a story titled “Brett Harris: DFA’d by Boston,” confirming his removal.
MLB.com published a full roster list confirming Paez’s promotion and Harris’s designation. MLB Trade Rumors circulated the transaction details, noting the timing during the Mariners series. The immediate impact falls on the players removed and promoted, as well as the Red Sox’s depth chart ahead of the final games of the season.
Observers will watch Boston’s next lineup decisions, especially how Kiner‑Falefa and Paez are utilized in the remaining series against Seattle. Any additional moves before the series concludes could further shape the club’s postseason prospects.
