Trevor Story Nears Return to Red Sox After Shoulder Surgery

The shortstop will take live batting practice Monday, signaling a possible comeback this season.

Story underwent surgery in April for a broken bone and torn labrum in his left shoulder.
He has been taking swings off a tee and soft toss since late July, with promising results.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora is optimistic about Story's progress and potential September return.
Story's defensive skills are game-ready, but his swing remains the focus of his recovery.
A return would bolster Boston's playoff push, addressing both defensive errors and hitting against lefties.
