Brayan Bello

BOS Starting Pitcher #66

Brayan Bello was tagged for five runs in six innings Wednesday in a loss to the Rays.

Bello spent most of the year with his ERA in the 3.00s, but giving up 13 earned runs in his final two starts has left him at 4.24 for the season. He also lost his last three decisions to wind up at 12-11. There’s still quite a bit to like here for the long haul, but as a middling strikeout pitcher working in front of a defense that figures to remain rather weak and in a strong ballpark for hitters, he’s not going to be very high in our rankings next year.
Reese McGuire

BOS Catcher #3

Reese McGuire (thumb) is available off the bench for Wednesday’s game against the Rays.

McGuire is absent from the Red Sox’ starting lineup after suffering a left thumb contusion during pregame warmups on Tuesday night, but will be available off the bench on Wednesday night, if needed.
Alex Cora

BOS Manager

Alex Cora says he’s been told he will return as Boston’s manager next year.

The new president of baseball ops, whomever that might be, apparently isn’t going to be allowed to make the final call there. Next year is the last season’s of Cora’s contract. He has spoken of perhaps getting back into front office work down the line.
Rafael Devers

BOS Third Baseman #11

Rafael Devers isn’t in the lineup Wednesday for Boston’s game against Tampa Bay.

It’s really odd for Devers to sit against a righty, so it’s possible something is bothering him. Bobby Dalbec is starting at third tonight.
Enmanuel Valdez

BOS Third Baseman #47

Enmanuel Valdez went 3-for-4 with a three-run homer in a loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

The Red Sox were held scoreless through four innings but after back-to-back to start off the fifth, Valdez connected with a 411-foot three-run shot, his sixth home run of the season. Since returning from the injured list, he has started every game at second base, as the team determines if he is fit for next season’s roster. On the season, the 24-year-old is hitting a respectable .273/.316/.477 across his first 137 plate appearances in the majors.
Tanner Houck

BOS Starting Pitcher #89

Tanner Houck surrendered six runs across three innings on Tuesday in a loss to the Rays.

Houck hit the first batter he faced on Tuesday, which foreshadowed what was about to happen. The next five batters would reach safety and he and the Red Sox were quickly in a three-run deficit. After a clean second, he allowed three hits back-to-back to lead off the third and by the time the inning was over, the Rays had a seven-run lead. Houck now holds a 5-10 record, 5.31 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, and a 93/38 K/BB ratio over 100 innings.
Reese McGuire

BOS Catcher #3

Reese McGuire was pulled from Tuesday night’s ballgame against the Rays due to an apparent left thumb injury.

McGuire suffered the injury while warming up Tanner Houck in between innings, a pitch in the dirt caught him directly on the left thumb. He’ll likely head for X-rays to see if he’s dealing with any fractures. Look for the Red Sox to update his status when possible.
Kyle Barraclough

BOS Relief Pitcher #49

Red Sox sent RHP Kyle Barraclough outright to Triple-A Worcester.

The right-hander had been designated for assignment on Sunday, but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the Red Sox — at least for the time being. On the season, the 33-year-old hurler holds a 12.91 ERA, 2.61 WHIP and a 4/6 K/BB ratio across 7 2/3 frames at the big league level.
Wilyer Abreu

BOS Right Fielder #86

Wilyer Abreu went 1-for-3 with a home run in Sunday’s loss to the White Sox.

Wilyer had been out of the lineup for six games with a hand contusion before returning on Sunday. In his first at-bat, he took Mike Clevinger deep for a solo home run, his second on the season. The rookie is now hitting .362/.431/.552 in 65 plate appearances and could figure prominently into the Red Sox plans for 2024.
Kutter Crawford

BOS Starting Pitcher #50

Kutter Crawford allowed three runs on four hits in 5 1/3 innings in a loss to the White Sox on Sunday.

While the box score might not be overly impressive, Crawford also struck out seven hitters and posted an impressive 35 percent whiff rate and 32 percent CSW. It just so happens that three of the hits he allowed were for extra bases, and he also walked three batters on the day. He was able to keep the White Sox off the scoreboard for four innings, but they finally broke through in the fifth and then knocked him from the game early in the sixth. Crawford is set to make one more start next week in Baltimore.
