Despite the recent Red Sox turn toward becoming a potential wild card contender, one of the team’s most talented pitchers has been experiencing a difficult stretch.
Brayan Bello, 25, is currently 7-5 with a 5.55 ERA through 14 starts. Viewed by the organization as a player with vast potential — given the six-year extension worth $55 million Bello and the Red Sox agreed to in March — the 2024 season has so far produced mixed results.
After recording a quality 3.04 ERA through his first five starts, Bello landed on the injury list for several weeks due to right lat tightness.
