Josh Winckowski Stats

Boston Red Sox pitching prospect Josh Winckowski threw a gem for Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday. The right-hander tossed seven innings and allowed three hits, zero runs, one walk and struck out six on the evening. Winckowski has been having an excellent year for Worcester and improved to 2-2 with a 3.38 ERA and 0.96 WHIP to go along with 43 strikeouts in 42 2/3 innings in nine starts. The 23-year-old made his debut with the Red Sox in a spot start earlier this year and it wouldn't be surprising to see him back at the big-league level this summer. Winckowski offers more value in dynasty leagues at the moment and if he's recalled, managers in redraft leagues can take a wait-and-see approach.

The Boston Red Sox called up right-hander Josh Winckowski on Saturday to serve as the team's 27th man for their doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles. Winckowski will start Game 2. In corresponding moves, the team placed right-hander Hansel Robles (back) on the 15-day injured list with back spasms and optioned right-hander Hirokazu Sawamura from Triple-A Worcester. Right-handers Ryan Brasier and Phillips Valdez were also recalled from Worcester. Winckowski will be making his major league debut against the O's after posting a 3.13 ERA and 0.85 WHIP while walking six and striking out 34 in 31 2/3 innings over seven starts for Worcester. The 23-year-old might be worth a look as a streaming sleeper in DFS against Baltimore.

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora hinted that pitching prospect Josh Winckowski could be a candidate to start one of the games in the team's doubleheader against the Baltimore Orioles next Saturday. Winckowski is ranked as the team's No. 13 overall prospect by MLB Pipeline. He has made six starts at Triple-A this year and he's pitched to a 2.10 ERA and a 0.82 WHIP while averaging 9.8 K/9. However, he hasn't been going very deep in his starts, pitching just 25.2 total innings across those six outings. The 23-year-old is currently part of the team's 40-man roster. He has yet to pitch in the majors, so next Saturday could wind up being his MLB debut.
