Brayan Bello News
Boston Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello (forearm) looked good in his Grapefruit League debut on Sunday against the Philadelphia Phillies, throwing two hitless and scoreless innings while walking none and striking out three in Boston's 9-5 win. Bello has been held back in camp due to right forearm tightness, but he made his debut on Sunday and looked very good while tossing 25 pitches. However, the 23-year-old will begin the 2023 regular season on the injured list, and he also might not appear in another Grapefruit League game. Bello will continue to throw in camp and build his arm up for the regular season, but he might not be a candidate to enter Boston's starting rotation until mid- to late-April.
Boston Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello (forearm) will toss a couple innings in a Grapefruit League game on Sunday for his spring debut. He will follow Nick Pivetta in the outing for Boston. The 23-year-old threw two innings on the back fields in spring training on Wednesday and is now ready to make his spring debut in a game. Even if Bello doesn't have any setbacks over the next couple of weeks, he's not expected to be ready to start the 2023 regular season in the Red Sox's starting rotation. The hard-throwing right-hander has plenty of maturing to do and will need to display better control to have consistent success in the big leagues, but his upside is intriguing in deep mixed and AL-only leagues if he's able to stick in Boston's rotation all year.
Boston Red Sox pitchers Garrett Whitlock (hip) and Brayan Bello (forearm) both threw to live hitters on Saturday in camp. Whitlock showed no ill-effects from right hip surgery he had last September when he threw two string innings (46 pitches). His next step will be his Grapefruit League debut against the Rays on Wednesday. Bello tossed 17 pitches in his first live action against hitters, and he will throw two more innings of live batting practice on Wednesday. Bello is scheduled to make his first spring start around March 19 or 20. Whitlock has an outside chance to be ready for the start of the season, but if not, he'll likely only miss a start or two. Bello is certain to start the year on the injured list, but he should be back at some point in April.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Brayan Bello figures to be a key piece of the club's rotation in 2023. Bello made his big-league debut last season, going 2-6 with a 2.94 FIP, 8.63 K/9, and 4.24 BB/9 through 13 games (11 starts). He did a great job keeping the ball on the ground, as evidenced by his 55.7 GB% and 0.16 HR/9. His fastball averaged an impressive 97 mph and topped out at triple-digits. After a rocky start in the majors, Bello had a strong end to his season, allowing just one earned run over his final 23 1/3 innings of work. Boston said goodbye to Nathan Eovaldi in free agency and is expected to lose Michael Wacha, too, meaning that Bello should have a key rotation role as early as Opening Day. At his ADP of 201.0, Bello is worth drafting in fantasy leagues thanks to his established role, blazing fastball, and ability to keep the ball on the ground.
