The Boston Red Sox have placed veteran relief pitcher Chris Martin on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to June 2, due to anxiety. To fill his spot on the active roster, the club has recalled right-handed pitcher Zack Kelly from Triple-A Worcester. This move reflects the increasing transparency and attention to mental health issues within professional sports. Martin, who has had a distinguished 15-season career with 607 appearances, joins other players like Bard, Johnson, and May in openly addressing mental health challenges.

Cora says Sox don’t know how long Abreu will be out. Zack Kelly is on his way from Worcester, but Sox aren’t sure yet if there’s a move. If there is, it would likely be related to Martin.
