Another day, another roster move, and another new face as Jerry Dipoto continues to scramble to find relievers who can get outs in major league games. This time, it’s RHP Austin Adams’s turn. Note that this is not Austin Davis Adams, who plays for the Twins and is the default Wikipedia result when you google “Austin Adams,” but Austin Lance Adams. These two need to play rock-paper-scissors to determine who gets to be Austin and who has to take Davis/Lance, in my opinion. Adams takes the place of Dan Altavilla, who had been throwing well in Arkansas but seemed to melt in the rain on the mound in Fenway.
