Garrett Whitlock News
Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that right-hander Garrett Whitlock (elbow) will make a minor-league rehab appearance on Wednesday for Triple-A Worcester and work three innings before likely being activated from the 15-day injured list on Sunday. The Red Sox could still view Whitlock as a starter long term, but they will bring the 27-year-old back in a relief role to close out the 2023 season after he made 10 starts earlier this year before his injury. Whitlock could be a bit interesting in deeper leagues in a relief role, but there's no denying that his overall fantasy appeal takes a hit with the move to the 'pen. Before his injury, Whitlock had a 5.23 ERA (4.48 FIP), 1.32 WHIP, seven walks and 47 K's in 51 2/3 innings of work.
Boston Red Sox right-hander Garrett Whitlock (elbow) is inching toward returning after spending time on the injured list since early July. However, according to Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic, the 27-year-old will likely work out of the bullpen upon his return. Whitlock, who owns a 4-3 record in 10 starts this season, is sitting on a 5.23 ERA, the worst mark of his career. While the move to the pen isn't ideal for his fantasy value, it's a role he's certainly more familiar with. Of course, there's always a chance Whitlock gets some starts here or there moving ahead, so he's worth considering when the matchup is favorable.
Boston Red Sox right-handers Tanner Houck (face) and Garrett Whitlock (elbow) both threw bullpen sessions over the last two days, with Whitlock throwing 35-40 pitches on Saturday, according to manager Alex Cora. At some point, they'll both progress to facing hitters, but the Red Sox haven't decided on roles for Houck and Whitlock, both of whom have been used exclusively as starters in 2023. Cora said the decision will be made after Tuesday's trade deadline, as the team is in hot pursuit of pitching additions that could change the complexion of their starting staff down the stretch. Houck, who hasn't pitched since June 16 due to a facial fracture, is a few days ahead of Whitlock, who has been out since July 3 with a bone bruise in his elbow.
