The Boston Red Sox placed right-hander
Walker Buehler (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Friday with right-shoulder inflammation and recalled pitching prospect
Hunter Dobbins from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. Dobbins will make his major-league debut and start on Saturday against the visiting Minnesota Twins. Manager Alex Cora feels that Buehler's IL stint will be minimal. If the 30-year-old only requires 15 days on the IL, he would be able to make his next start during a weekend series against the Atlanta Braves that starts on May 17. Buehler was dealing with a right-shoulder issue in his last start against the Cleveland Guardians last Saturday but still managed to have a quality start, allowing three earned runs while walking one and striking out three through six innings for his fourth win of the season. Keep Buehler stashed everywhere.

Boston Red Sox right-hander
Walker Buehler (shoulder) didn't bounce back well from his last start and is currently back in Boston getting testing done on his right shoulder. As of right now, the Red Sox are saying that Buehler is dealing with shoulder soreness, but he could be a candidate to land on the 15-day injured list, depending on what his tests reveal. The 30-year-old veteran gave up three earned runs on seven hits (one homer) while walking one and striking out three in six innings in a win against the Cleveland Guardians in his last outing on April 26. It's unclear if he'll need a stint on the IL, but at the very least he won't make his next scheduled start on Friday against the Minnesota Twins, with
Brayan Bello now set to take the mound in the series opener. Through his first six starts in Boston, Buehler has gone 4-1 with a 4.28 ERA and 1.22 WHIP with 29 K's and nine walks in 33 2/3 innings pitched.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher
Walker Buehler had his best start of the season on Monday, earning his third win in a 4-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox. Buehler allowed one run on four hits over his seven innings of work. He struck out nine and walked three. The 30-year-old has been a little up and down so far this season, but this was certainly a step in the right direction. He now holds a respectable 4.23 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 26 strikeouts in 27 ⅔ IP. Buehler is borderline rosterable in standard formats, but is a very good streaming option when he has good matchups like he did today.

Boston Red Sox right-hander
Walker Buehler was excellent on Thursday on a day the Red Sox desperately needed a win to avoid the four-game sweep at home against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays. Buehler went 6 1/3 innings, allowing four hits, one earned run, and one walk while striking out seven. He walked away from this outing with a no-decision, as the Red Sox won the game in extra innings. The seven strikeouts were encouraging, and his effectiveness was impressive, as he only threw 89 pitches in the six-plus innings. Buehler will try to keep it going and is tentatively lined up to face the Tampa Bay Rays on the road. Fantasy managers can continue to roll out Buehler in most 12-plus team leagues, but they are hoping to see more consistency from him moving forward.
