The Red Sox have cleared another spot on the 40-man roster, this time in a surprising move that sort of came out of nowhere. After trading lefty Yoan Aybar to Colorado late last week to bring the 40-man roster count down to 39, they’ve reduced the count to 38 on Monday by outrighting Yairo Muñoz to Triple-A.
OF/INF Yairo Muñoz has been outrighted to Triple-A Pawtucket.

Like I said, this one comes as a bit of surprise.
