Yoan Moncada, who’s on the injured list with a hamstring strain, is leaving for a minor-league rehab assignment with Class AAA Charlotte Wednesday.

“You see him out there running, and he’s looking really good,” Sox manager Rick Renteria said. “Yesterday, actually, was a really good day, he didn’t complain about anything. He’ll be going out to Charlotte to continue his rehab and play in a couple games, and then we’ll see where we’re at.”
Moncada has been out since July 31. He’s having the best season of his career with a .301/.358/.535 hitting slash.
