The Red Sox rotation has more questions than a troll beneath a bridge, allowing passage to weary adventurers. Among those many questions is, “How will Garrett Whitlock fare as a full-time starter?” Whitlock was used primarily as a starter in the minor leagues in the Yankees’ system before being selected by the Red Sox in the Rule 5 draft and becoming a reliever. After he spent his entire rookie season in the pen, he made nine starts in 2022, although he both started and finished the season as a reliever. He’s slated to spend the entirety of the 2023 season in the rotation after he was used in multiple roles last season, according to GM Brian O’Halloran.
