The Red Sox bullpen is finally getting another potential elite arm ahead of Wednesday’s series finale in Washington. We talked about Tyler Thornburg earlier in the week when it was hinted that he’d be activated off the disabled list at some point either in Washington or Kansas City. Well, after Tuesday’s win over the Nationals, Alex Cora announced to the media that the right-handed pitcher was set to be activated prior to Wednesday’s game. William Cuevas will be demoted to make room on the active roster.
Really, there isn’t a whole lot more to say here.
