Story went 1-for-4 with a steal and one RBI in Monday's 3-1 victory over the Mets.
The Boston shortstop swiped second base off New York starter Kodai Senga after reaching on an infield single in the opening frame. The steal snapped an ice cold eight-game stretch without one during which Story slashed an anemic .125/.176/.219 across 34 plate appearances. Given that Story has struggled to a .129 batting average (12-for-93) over his last 23 games, the Red Sox may soon be tempted to promote Marcelo Mayer, who is slashing .264/.335/.459 in 179 plate appearances at Triple-A Worcester.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Smacks three-run home run
Rotowire
Story went 1-for-5 with a three-run homer in Saturday's 10-1 win over the Royals.
Story -- who entered Saturday's game having gone 7-for-62 (.113) over his last 15 games -- gave the Red Sox a 7-1 lead in the seventh inning, when he took Angel Zerpa deep to left-center field for a three-run home run. It was Story's sixth home run of the season and first since April 18 against the White Sox. Story batted fifth Saturday and has primarily hit there this season, though his recent struggles at the plate resulted in him hitting out of the No. 6 hole for most of the week.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Receiving afternoon off
Rotowire
Story is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
David Hamilton will step in at shortstop while Story heads to the bench for the first time since April 20 in what appears to be a routine maintenance day. While starting in each of Boston's last 12 games, Story went just 9-for-50 at the dish, dropping his season-long batting average from .318 to .267.
Story went 3-for-4 with a run scored and one RBI in Monday's 4-2 victory over the White Sox.
After receiving a breather Sunday, Story returned in this early Patriots' Day tilt and produced his fourth three-hit game of the season. The 32-year-old shortstop has been electric of late, batting .439 (18-for-41) with three home runs, 11 RBI and five runs scored over his last 10 games. Overall, Story is slashing .337/.366/.528 with five homers, six steals, 15 RBI and 11 runs scored in 93 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Not in starting nine Sunday
Rotowire
Story isn't starting Sunday's game against the White Sox, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
It's a routine day off for Story, as manager Alex Cora gave the veteran shortstop the option of sitting either Sunday or Monday, per Smith. Story has been on a heater of late, batting .405 with three home runs, 10 RBI and four stolen bases over his past nine games. The Red Sox are starting David Hamilton at shortstop in Story's place Sunday.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Posts 20th career multi-homer game
Rotowire
Story went 3-for-4 with a pair of three-run home runs and an additional run scored in Friday's win over the White Sox.
It was the 20th career multi-homer game by Story, who first went yard in the first inning to get Boston on the board. He later got the rout fully underway with his second three-run jack, giving the Red Sox a 9-2 lead in the seventh inning. Although the oft-injured shortstop went just 2-for-15 in March, Story is batting .364 with five long balls, 14 RBI, eight runs scored and four stolen bases across 66 at-bats in the month of April and should be rostered in virtually all fantasy leagues at this point.
Story went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Sunday's win over the White Sox.
Story opened the game's scoring with a two-run double in the sixth inning and tacked on an insurance run with his solo shot in the ninth. He had just one extra-base hit in eight games since his last home run April 4. The veteran shortstop looks more like his vintage self with a strong .308/.328/.477 slash line through 67 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Steals another base
Rotowire
Story went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the White Sox.
Story is off and running to start the 2025 season and is up to six stolen bases through 16 games. He's stolen at least one bag in three consecutive games. Of course, the Red Sox expect more than a .695 OPS (three extra-base hits) from the veteran shortstop, but the steals are helpful to fantasy managers.

Red Sox's Trevor Story: Swipes two bags, walks it off
Rotowire
Story went 2-for-5 with an RBI and two stolen bases in Thursday's 4-3 extra-inning victory over the Blue Jays.
After stealing two bases earlier in the outing, Story grounded out with the bases loaded to bring home the winning run in the ninth inning and walk it off for the Red Sox. The oft-injured shortstop went just 2-for-15 to open the season, but Story is picking it up in April, batting .316 with two home runs, one double and five RBI over 38 at-bats this month.
Story went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Friday's 13-9 win over the Cardinals.
Story got Fenway Park rocking in Boston's home opener with a three-run blast in the first inning. It was his second homer in the last three games. Healthy again after three injury-plagued seasons, Story could finally deliver on a six-year contract he signed in 2022.
