Red Sox manager John Farrell indicated Tuesday that Rusney Castillo could be promoted soon.
Castillo is currently in Miami for the birth of his child, and Farrell hinted that the outfielder could be recalled by the big club after that rather than report back to Triple-A Pawtucket. "What's taken place is his timing, his ability to impact the baseball is starting to show up a little bit more," said Farrell. "He's returned home obviously for the birth of his child. That's going to be a couple of days. Whether or not we allow him to get a game under his belt at Pawtucket before possibly looking at a change here, those are all possibilities.
