Josh Taylor Stats

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Josh Taylor (back) is expected to pitch out of the bullpen at Triple-A Worcester on both Friday and Saturday, throwing one inning in each game. The 29-year-old has been out all year due to a back strain, but if all goes well this weekend, we could see him back with the Red Sox soon. The left-hander was one of the Red Sox's primary relievers in 2021. He appeared in 61 games and pitched to a 3.40 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP while compiling 15 holds and a save.

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Josh Taylor (back) will begin his rehab assignment in Triple-A on Sunday. Taylor opened the season on the 10-day injured list due to a lower back strain. The plan is that Taylor will throw on Sunday and hopefully be able to return to the big leagues after that. The 29-year-old pitched well out of the bullpen for Boston last season. He'd be an upgrade for their struggling bullpen right now.

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Josh Taylor (back) is dealing with a back issue and hasn't thrown off a mound yet this spring. As a result, his availability for Opening Day is in question. Taylor also dealt with a back injury late last year that landed him on the injured list. The 29-year-old left-hander was an important reliever for Boston in 2021 and had a solid 3.40 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, 60 strikeouts and 23 walks in 47 2/3 innings over 61 relief appearances. If Taylor is forced to open the year on the injured list, new lefty additions Jake Diekman and Matt Strahm should help pick up the slack in left-handed matchups.
