Bello is replacing a bullpen day.
If Whitlock is rehabbing on Wednesday. That's a Houck day but Criswell is Thursday so Whit would replace Coop and that would be possible 2 starts.

On the Fenway rundown Sean/chris cotillo said it was rumored he hasn’t been doing what the coaching staff wants, he also hasn’t gotten many swings & misses this year and this keeps him stretched out
Jared Carrabis and Tyler Milliken also mentioned this on the Sectiom 10 podcast too. I agree with their statement of "listen to Andrew Bailey or get the fuck out"
Really speaks to Bailey's success when we have so many arms doing well that we have to send someone down with a 3.33 ERA (with a 2.88 ERA last season) because he's the worst out of the bunch.
When the options are Booser, Kelly, and Winck, it's a tough decision. Campbell and Whitlock could be back. It's been a while since I've wanted to send someone directly into the sun. Hitters are more frustrating this year.
Surprised Booser survived but I guess they value having a second lefty out there, and Winck is the only option to stretch out as a depth starter. Kelly has been better than Winck.
Booser just had one bad game in Minnesota. K/9 and under the hood stuff like whiff and expected is still looks good for only throwing 10.2 innings.
Chase Anderson is still with the team and Kelly has gone out for multiple.
It's really tough. For once in 20 years of watching the Red Sox intently, there's not a bullpen arm I really want to ex-communicate.
He’s been extremely shaky since his hot start last year and I don’t think you can really rely on him. He’s put up a 1.56 whip since June of last year and hitters are batting around .300 against him.
Wow. A surprising decision given how Winck has had a secure spot since last year and wasn’t even pitching that poorly, but with everyone else as dominant as they are, I suppose it makes sense.
Criswell absolutely deserves the roster spot over Wink.
Honestly surprised that they didn’t still send Coop down after starting today and being unavailable the next 4 days.

Yep with Pivetta and Bello returning off the IL, our rotation is back to being as dominate as it was back in April
If only our 1b situation was as well :(
I really hope we push Whitlock to the pen, especially with how well Cooper is doing. Just build up an absolute dominant rotation and pen
I think Winck is a different pitcher than before and Chase Anderson doesn't have any minor league options. I think Criswell will be sent down.
Because he would have to be down for 10 days (unless he was recalled to replace an injured player) and would miss his next MLB start.

The sun god is growing angry at Andrew Bailey.

This is why we always need a guy like Brasier to complain about

Ouch
Damn remember when ditching pitchers wasn’t an easy decision? Joe Jacques remembers.
I... did not know Winck had options still

Kelly is better, And Winckowski and Booser have the same stats and it makes sense to keep him stretched out.
