    Whitlock has returned to the mound for the Red Sox in advance of a rehab assignment , and did so while drawing inspiration from a former Cy Young Award winner.
    Whitlock said he heard Scherzer goes full uni for his bullpen sessions so he plans on doing so moving forward to make his reps as gamelike as possible - Alex Speier June 29, 2022

    1 month ago - By TheScore

    Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora believes he'll have a full roster the next time his team heads north of the border. Cora told reporters Wednesday that the team is continuing to have conversations with its unvaccinated players who are unable to travel to Toronto this week for the series against the Blue Jays. "I do believe when we come into September, it's going to be different.... It's going to change from our end, leave it at that," Cora said of his unvaccinated players' statuses, according to Alex Speier of The Boston Globe. Canada's current COVID-19 rules require those who are...

    ESPN's Buster Olney last week stirred the pot when he mentioned the Boston Red Sox as a potential suitor for Aaron Judge should the slugger leave the New York Yankees in free agency this offseason.
    On Tuesday, another MLB insider followed suit.
    Jon Heyman, writing for the New York Post, listed several teams that theoretically could target Judge on the open market, calling them “the likeliest of suspects” if the Yankees ultimately are unwilling to meet the All-Star outfielder's asking price.
    Boston was the second team Heyman listed, behind the San Francisco Giants and...

    Garrett Whitlock thrived out of the bullpen for the Boston Red Sox this season before being moved to the rotation, but could he be used as a reliever going forward?
    It's no secret the Red Sox don't have a lot of reliability out of the ‘pen and don't have a solidified closer. Tanner Houck has fared well when given the opportunity, but as long as Canada keeps its COVID-19 vaccination mandates in place, he won't be able to join the team in Toronto.
    Whitlock hasn't been able to find his groove as a starter. He hasn't been bad by any means, but it was clear how important he...
