Red Sox Scouting Francisco Liriano
6 years agoThe Boston Red Sox were scouting Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Francisco Liriano during his start against the Royals on Wednesday. Boston is seeking bullpen help and currently do not have a lefty in their bullpen. The veteran lefty is 3-5 with a 4.73 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and only 69 strikeouts in 83 2/3 innings, but he's been dynamite against lefties. If traded to Boston, he'd be in the bullpen but could also be an emergency option for the rotation. Liriano hasn't been much help to fantasy owners this year, especially not in mixed leagues, and pitching in relief wouldn't do him any favors.
