The Red Sox have used a lot of pitchers over the last few days due to the fact that, well, the pitchers have been bad. Ryan Weber lasted only four innings on Wednesday and that was after four pitchers were needed for the last three innings on Tuesday. In other words, the team needs some fresh arms for the series coming up in New York. More specifically, they need arms that can go multiple innings after Hector Velázquez threw a lot of pitches in two innings on Wednesday. So, they’ll be calling up one of their top ten prospects to give them the chance for some length if needed.
Red Sox call up Mike Shawaryn and place Hector Velázquez on the injured list
