As well as the 2021 season has gone so far in Boston, the first-place Red Sox still have real questions to answer as the second half of the year begins. One of the biggest revolves around the starting rotation.
Even with Chris Sale’s return apparently approaching, the team could stand to get a bit more out of the starting slots occupied by Martin Perez and Garrett Richards.
That’s why the Red Sox are scouting some possible veteran help for the back end of the rotation.
Boston reportedly will watch ex-Phillies star Cole Hamels work out in Texas this Friday, a major league source told WEEI’s Rob Bradford.
