Red Sox released LHP Joe La Sorsa.

The 28-year-old southpaw had been stationed at the Triple-A level where he posted a 2.78 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and a 26/7 K/BB ratio over 32 1/3 innings. With the lack of quality bullpen depth around the league, La Sorsa shouldn’t be out of work for long.

Red Sox selected the contract of LHP Joe La Sorsa from Triple-A Worcester.

This was fait accompli after La Sorsa exercised his upward mobility clause, leading the Red Sox to acquire him from Pittsburgh. La Sorsa had a 3.46 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 22/6 K/BB ratio at Triple-A Indianapolis. He’ll try to work his way into the circle of trust in Boston’s bullpen.

Red Sox acquired LHP Joe La Sorsa from the Pirates for cash considerations.

The 28-year-old southpaw exercised the upward mobility clause in his minor league deal with the Pirates, so the Bucs either had to trade him or grant him his release. La Sorsa is expected to join the Red Sox’ active roster on Friday, with right-hander Brayan Bello expected to be optioned to Triple-A Worcester to free up a spot.

According to Ari Alexander of 7News Boston, the Red Sox have an agreement in place to acquire left-hander Joe La Sorsa from the Pirates.

The 28-year-old southpaw trigged the upward mobility clause in his contract with the Pirates, meaning that they had to either trade him or grant him his unconditional release. The Pirates will receive cash considerations in return. La Sorsa has compiled a 3.46 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and a 22/6 K/BB ratio over 26 innings at Triple-A Indianapolis this season.

Pirates optioned C Rafael Flores and RHP Cam Sanders to Triple-A Indianapolis. Reassigned INF Alika Williams, LHP Joe La Sorsa and RHPs Chris Devenski and Carson Fulmer to minor league camp.

On the pitching side, Devenski had a shot at making the team’s Opening Day bullpen, but struggled to a 6.75 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over 5 1/3 innings during Grapefruit League play. Williams had a solid spring offensively, hitting .258 (8-for-31) with a homer and seven RBI, but that wasn’t enough to secure a spot on the Pirates’ Opening Day bench.

Pirates signed LHP Joe La Sorsa to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

The 27-year-old La Sorsa added considerable velocity last season, with his fastball climbing on average from 88 mph in 2024 to 92 mph during his time with the Reds. Still, it didn’t help him establish himself in the majors. He has a 5.21 ERA in 57 innings with the Rays, Nationals and Reds the last three years.

Mets signed LHP Joe La Sorsa to a minor league contract.

It didn’t take La Sorsa very long to find a new opportunity after electing free agency. The 27-year-old southpaw boasts a pedestrian 5.21 ERA across 57 innings over 46 appearances in the big leagues for four different organizations since 2023. He’ll head to Triple-A Syracuse as extra left-handed relief depth to close out the season.
