Setback For Nathan Eovaldi Not Viewed As Long-Term

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi's (elbow) latest setback is not viewed as anything serious, according to Red Sox manager Alex Cora. "No. Unfortunately, it’s longer than we’d like. The longer he’s out, the longer it takes to build back. But no, not long term." Eovaldi, who has been out since April 17, was […]

Mike Shawaryn To Continue To Pitch In Relief Role

Boston Red Sox pitcher Mike Shawaryn will continue to pitch out of a relief role, according to manager Alex Cora.

After a horrendous start to the season, Bradley is hitting […]

J.D. Martinez Doubles Twice

Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez finished 2-for-4, with two doubles and a run batted in during Tuesday's loss to the Rangers.

Mookie Betts Find Stands Tuesday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts' only hit, Tuesday night, was a solo home run in the ninth inning of a 9-5 loss to the Rangers. Betts has hit safely in four straight games, but his average sits at just .267. Now the Red Sox's leadoff hitter, the 26-year-old is more of an on-base machine […]

Darwinzon Hernandez Recalled, Starting Tuesday

Boston Red Sox pitcher Darwinzon Hernandez will draw the start against the Texas Rangers on Tuesday. Hernandez threw 2 1/3 scoreless innings earlier this season with four strikeouts. However, he owns a 5.13 ERA and 59/32 K/BB ratio in Double-A this year. DFS players should go ahead and stay away from Hernandez in this one.

Jackie Bradley Jr. Sitting Out Tuesday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday. Brock Holt draws into the lineup as a result and will hit sixth and start in left field against Rangers starting pitcher Ariel Jurado.

The Boston Red Sox placed relief pitcher Ryan Brasier on the bereavement list/family emergency leave on Tuesday and recalled pitcher Darwinzon Hernandez from the minors in order to make his first major league start.

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes allowed two runs in the ninth inning against the Rangers, surrendering the 2-1 lead, and picking up his fourth blown save of the season.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale finished seven innings, allowing one unearned run, on just three hits, while striking out 10 and walking one in Monday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

J.D. Martinez Returns on Monday

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (back) returns to the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Texas Rangers. Martinez missed four games due to back spasms, but appears fine to suit up for this one. He'll bat third and serve as the designated hitter against lefty Mike Minor. Fantasy owners can go ahead and […]

Marcus Walden Caps Off Rough Week

Boston Red Sox reliever Marcus Walden recorded just one out in four batters faced in the seventh inning of Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay.

Mitch Moreland Improving, Steve Pearce Cleared

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (quadriceps) is improving and doing treadmill work after landing back on the injured list on Saturday. First baseman Steve Pearce (back) has been cleared to begin baseball activities on Monday.

Nathan Eovaldi Has Setback With Biceps Soreness

Boston Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi has had his latest bullpen session pushed back due to biceps soreness. He landed on the IL on April 20 and underwent surgery on his elbow to remove a "loose body" putting him on a 4-6 week recovery. He's now on the back end of that timeframe, and this […]

Rafael Devers, Brock Holt Out on Sunday

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (rest) and second baseman Brock Holt (rest) are out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays.

H2H Category Streamers - Week 11 Waiver Wire

There are plenty of strategies that fantasy managers explore in hopes of getting an advantage over their opponent. Heavy lineup, heavy starting pitchers, no catcher, all (or mostly) reliever staff, no reliever staff, etc. Even if you play a balanced lineup, injuries can cause holes. A few weeks without a key player won’t kill a […]

J.D. Martinez Remains Out on Sunday

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez (back) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Martinez hasn't played in a game since leaving Thursday's contest due to back spasms. It doesn't sound like the Red Sox plan to put Martinez on the injured list. Christian Vazquez will serve as […]

Mike Shawaryn Makes Strong First Impression

Boston Red Sox pitcher Mike Shawaryn pitched two innings, allowing no hits, and striking out three in Saturday's game one of a doubleheader loss to Tampa Bay. He needed 36 pitches to get through his outing, but he stopped the bleeding left by starter Josh Smith's four-run second inning. Shawaryn made his MLB debut on […]

David Price Ties Season High In Strikeouts

Boston Red Sox David Price earned his fourth win Saturday, going six innings, allowing one run, on five hits, while striking out 10, and walking two in a 5-1 victory over Tampa Bay. His 10 punchouts ties a season high, but he wasn't overly filthy, throwing just 16 swinging strikes. However, he's now finished at […]
