Nathan Eovaldi Scheduled For Bullpen Tuesday
6 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (elbow) is feeling good and is scheduled for a bullpen session on Tuesday. The hard-throwing right-hander is showing signs of progress and could join the rotation later this month if he can avoid setbacks. He has an ugly 6.00 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 16 strikeouts in 21 innings and hasn't pitched since April 17, but Eovaldi has some intriguing upside in the strikeout category when he's healthy. He'll need to limit the walks, though, as he had 11 free passes in his 21 innings of work before his injury. Eovaldi is worth taking a chance on in deeper leagues when he gets closer to returning.
