Travis Lakins was called up and he’s staying up

Well, we missed a move between games on Tuesday. Darwinzon Hernandez was, of course, called up to the major-league roster to serve as the 26th man on the active roster for the second game of Tuesday’s doubleheader. In addition to that, the Red Sox optioned lefty Bobby Poyner back to Pawtucket and called up Travis Lakins to make his major-league debut.

As we know now, both of these guys were able to get into the nightcap of Tuesday’s doubleheader, and both looked at least somewhat impressive.
