Leon is getting the start behind the plate against Minnesota on Saturday, batting ninth, Evan Drellich of the Boston Herald reports.

Leon was promoted to the big leagues last week with Ryan Hanigan (neck) and Blake Swihart (ankle) landing on the DL and is now receiving his first major league start of the 2016 season. He'll replace fellow Red Sox catcher, Christian Vazquez, who is receiving a rest day after seven straight games of action.
