Jake Bennett anchors the SP Roundup with a 7-inning, 0-run start that drops his ERA to 2.64 and cements his roster-worthiness, while the piece also recaps notable Wednesday performances (Cease’s near-no-hitter, McClanahan’s consistency, Jones’s six frames of no-hit ball) and weighs which arms carry fantasy teams into the All-Star break.
The Boston Red Sox recalled left-hander Jake Bennett from Triple-A Worcester to start against the Astros, giving him his MLB debut as injuries force a rotation shuffle. Bennett, a 6’6” lefty, posted a sharp 0.86 ERA across 21 Worcester innings with a strong walk rate and ground-ball tendency, and he brings a multi-pitch mix led by a plus-changeup. He joins a rotation that includes Suarez, Bello, Early and Tolle while other starters recover from injuries, marking a major opportunity for the highly regarded prospect.
The Red Sox and Nationals have exchanged pitching prospects Luis Perales and Jake Bennett in a rare one-for-one trade driven by regime changes, with Perales being a high-risk, high-reward prospect and Bennett considered a safer, more stable option for the rotation.
