Bogaerts is in the lineup Friday, manning shortstop and batting sixth against the Rays.
This will be Bogaerts' fourth straight start. He rode the pine all of last weekend, with manager John Farrell acknowledging that the decision to sit Bogaerts was in part due to the 24-year-old's prolonged struggles at the dish (in addition to a couple minor injuries). Bogaerts has hit .198/.276/.299 since he was plunked on the hand by a pitch back on July 6, and he's just 2-for-13 since returning from his three-game breather.
