Paez is “an option” to start for Sox on Tuesday

Jedixson Paez

BOS Relief Pitcher #63

Player Stats

Tommy Cassell of the Worcester Telegram and Gazette reports that Red Sox RHP prospect Jedixson Paez is “an option for Boston for Tuesday.”

The team is skipping Sonny Gray’s start on Tuesday, so they are likely going to need a spot starter. Paez was given another day off this weekend and is “probably” going to pitch for Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday. That lines him up with Gray’s schedule if the Red Sox choose to make the move. He’s made three starts in Triple-A since being promoted but has allowed just four runs on seven hits in 12 1/3 innings while posting an 18/2 K/BB ratio. He would not be a recommended fantasy streamer, but it would be interesting to see how close he is to throwing meaningful innings in 2027.

Red Sox optioned RHP Jedixson Paez to Triple-A Worcester.

It was a rough first MLB start for Paez on Tuesday, allowing eight runs in 3 2/3 innings against the Mariners. He did throw 63 percent of his pitches for strikes, including 86 percent on his curve, and his changeup posted a 17 percent swinging strike rate against lefties, but his fastball locations were not good, and he simply doesn’t throw hard enough to get by without solid location. There’s a chance he gets another spot start this season to keep Boston’s regular starters fresh for the playoffs.

Making his first major league start, Jedixson Paez was torched for eight runs in 3 2/3 innings by the Mariners in a loss Tuesday.

Paez gave up runs each inning of his spot start in place of Sonny Gray and threw 87 pitches to get his 11 outs. He’ll almost surely head back to Triple-A on Wednesday.

Red Sox selected the contract of RHP Jedixson Paez from Triple-A Worcester.

As was speculated yesterday, Paez will make his first MLB start for the Red Sox on Tuesday in Sonny Gray’s place. The 22-year-old has allowed just four runs on seven hits in 12 1/3 innings while posting an 18/2 K/BB ratio in three starts for Triple-A Worcester. He’s not a recommended play in fantasy leagues outside of deep AL-only format.

BOS Relief Pitcher #63

Red Sox RHP prospect Jedixson Paez allowed one run on one hit in five innings for Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old also struck out eight and didn’t walk a single batter, while throwing 74 percent of his pitches for strikes and posting a 26 percent swinging strike rate. Paez was primarily a long reliever in Double-A, but he has started in both of his appearances in Triple-A as the Red Sox look for more starting pitching depth. He faced a lot of lefties on Tuesday, and his cutter and changeup were real weapons for him. His four-seamer also sits 92.6 mph, but he uses his cutter as his primary fastball and also features a sinker and curve as well. He could give the Red Sox some innings in September to help them save some of their other starters for the postseason.

Red Sox promoted RHP Jedixson Paez to Triple-A Worcester.

Paez was originally selected by the White Sox with the second pick in the Rule 5 Draft, but he was waived in April and returned to the Red Sox. The 22-year-old had a 4.41 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and a 56/5 K/BB ratio in 49 innings over 17 appearances (seven starts) in Double-A.

White Sox returned RHP Jedixson Paez to the Red Sox.

Paez ships up to Boston after passing through waivers unclaimed following his removal from Chicago’s active roster earlier this week. The 22-year-old reliever made the White Sox’ season-opening bullpen as a Rule 5 pick, but wound up lasting just one week in the big leagues, allowing six runs on four hits with three walks and zero strikeouts over three innings of work.

White Sox designated RHP Jedixson Paez for assignment.

This is a rough break for Paez. The 22-year-old had never pitched above High-A but was selected by the White Sox in the Rule 5 draft, so they had to keep him on the MLB roster or give him back to the Red Sox. He lasted a week on the roster and will now be available to other teams on waivers. If he clears, he’ll likely rejoin the Red Sox.

White Sox selected Red Sox RHP Jedixson Paez with the second pick in the Rule 5 draft.

Paez missed much of 2025, but he had a 2.79 ERA and a 23/3 K/BB in 19 1/3 innings over seven starts for High-A Greenville. While he’s been a starter in the minors, he’s yet to throw more than 85 innings in a season. The White Sox figure to try him as a reliever and see if he can make the jump at age 22.

Max Muncy went 3-for-4 with a solo homer in a win over the Mariners on Friday.

Muncy hit the first of four homer off Logan Gilbert; all in the third inning. The 24-year-old has homered eight times with a less-than-ideal .224/.293/.384 slash, but it’s worth noting that he’s still just 24, and there have been some good moments for the former first-round selection.

Cal Raleigh homered and doubled while driving in two runs in a loss to the Athletics on Friday.

Raleigh drew a walk as well, and scored three runs. He torched a homer off Kade Morris to tie the game at 5-5 in the third inning, and it’s the 21st roundtripper of the season for the backstop. There’s nothing that he can do to call this a quality season over the final three weeks, but this is still nice to see for those who are considering using a draft pick on Raleigh in 2027.

Zack Gelof homered and tripled to help the Athletics to a 7-6 win over the Mariners on Friday.

Gelof has homered in three-straight games, and he hit the fourth and final homer of the third inning off Logan Gilbert to give the A’s a 5-2 lead. His homer was his 17th, and the triple was the second of the 2026 campaign. Gelof has looked the part as of late, and reminded why he was one of the top hitting prospects in baseball not all that long ago.

Kade Morris allowed five runs in 2 1/3 innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Friday.

Morris wasn’t ever likely to go deep enough for a win, but stood even less chance when he gave up a five-spot with two of those runs coming on a homer from Cal Raleigh. The 24-year-old could work in a similar role next week, but obviously there’s no fantasy upside here.

Logan Gilbert struck out 10 and allowed seven runs in 4 2/3 innings in a loss to the Athletics on Friday.

Ten strikeouts is really good. Ten strikeouts and four homers allowed kinda defeats the purpose, and that’s what Gilbert allowed Friday. Even crazier, all four of them came in the fourth inning, with a pair coming from the bottom of the lineup. Coming into the year, the 29-year-old had been excellent in his friendly home surroundings. The 2026 season has seen several clunkers like this as seen in an ERA of 3.99 at home compared to 2.70 away. He’ll try and get back on track against the Rangers in Seattle on Thursday.

Kyle Tucker homered and scored twice in a win over the Nationals on Friday.

It was Tucker’s first homer since August 8, and just the 12th of the season for the 29-year-old. It hasn’t hurt the Dodgers much, but Tucker has been one of the biggest disappointments in baseball in his first season in Los Angeles with a slash of just .226/.327/.359.

Blake Snell went six scoreless and struck out seven to pick up a win in the Dodgers’ 5-3 win over the Nationals on Friday.

Snell threw 100 pitches, and 65 of those landed for strikes. It wasn’t as dominant as his start last weekend against the Tigers when he whiffed 10, but he was just as effective, if not more so. The 33-year-old has been sensational when healthy enough to pitch in 2026, and his ERA is now at a healthy 1.97. Obviously, Snell has to be in fantasy lineups for Wednesday’s scheduled start at home versus the Reds.

Jackson Kent gave up four runs — three earned — to the Dodgers over five innings in a loss for the Nationals on Friday.

Kent gave up three runs in the third and an unearned one in the fourth. The 23-year-old was excellent in his previous outing against the Marlins with seven innings of one-run baseball, but he didn’t face the Marlins in this one. Kent walked four, struck out four and has looked mediocre — at best — thus far in his limited MLB action. He’ll take a 5.55 ERA into a start scheduled for Wednesday against the Padres.

Luis Campusano hit a walk-off two-run homer in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Padres a 3-2 win over the Yankees on Friday.

Campusano also singled. The 27-year-old continued his strong campaign at the plate by taking Paul Blackburn deep in the bottom of the 10th to give the Padres a much-needed win in their quest to clinch one of the final postseason berths in the National League. He’s been limited to just 56 games, but in those contests he’s now hit six homers, driven in 25 runs and slashed .283/.364/.465. You can do a heck of a lot worse than that.
