Red Sox Shuffling Bullpen as Whitlock Lands on 15-Day IL
TL;DR Summary
Boston placed reliever Garrett Whitlock on the 15-day injured list with left knee inflammation (retroactive to May 25), recalling Tyler Samaniego to fill the roster. Whitlock’s absence strains a bullpen that relies on leverage arms; a return in under two weeks is possible if symptoms improve. Weissert and Slaten are among the bullpen options as Boston, at 23-31, chases a wild-card spot in a crowded AL.
