  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Excels in long relief

    Bello struck out five and allowed one earned run on two hits and no walks across 4.1 innings of long relief Sunday in the Red Sox's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Mets.

    Boston recalled Bello from Triple-A Worcester prior to their final game of the first half, after the right-hander submitted a 4.34 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 22:4 K:BB in 18.2 innings across his four starts in the minors. Though Bello had previously been used as a traditional starter or bulk reliever in his prior 13 outings with Boston this season, he was deployed as part of a piggyback arrangement with Payton Tolle, whom interim manager Chad Tracy indicated prior to the game would be deliberately limited as a means of workload management. After Tolle covered the first 3.2 innings, Bello entered midway through the fourth and was able to keep the Red Sox competitive before the Boston offense finally broke through with two runs in the ninth inning to send the game to extras. Boston will have an opening in its rotation until either Ranger Suarez (groin) or Connelly Early (elbow) return from the injured list, and Bello or Eduardo Rivera -- who made an abbreviated start Saturday -- would appear to be the top candidates to fill the void.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Joining big-league bullpen

    The Red Sox recalled Bello from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

    The right-hander was in the mix to be called up for a spot start Saturday, but Boston instead turned to Eduardo Rivera to fill Ranger Suarez's (groin) rotation spot. Bello will still join the big club for the final game before the All-Star break and will be available out of the bullpen, with interim manager Chad Tracy suggesting that the 27-year-old could be called upon to cover multiple innings in relief since starter Payton Tolle will likely be in line for a shorter outing by design Sunday, per Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. Since being optioned to Worcester in early June, the 27-year-old posted a 4.34 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 22:4 K:BB across 18.2 frames in four starts after struggling to a 6.34 ERA in 12 outings for the Red Sox.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Could pitch Saturday for Boston

    Red Sox manager Chad Tracy said Wednesday that Bello could be called up from Triple-A Worcester and to pitch Saturday against the Yankees if Ranger Suarez (adductor) is unable to start, Sean McAdam of MassLive.com reports.

    Suarez was pulled early in his most recent start Sunday against the Angels due to adductor tightness. The Red Sox are hopeful that the left-hander can avoid a stint on the injured list and make a start during the upcoming weekend, but Boston may have to turn to Bello to fill in either as a conventional starter or in a bulk-relief role if Suarez is unable to pitch. Since being optioned to Worcester on June 5, Bello has submitted a 4.34 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 22:4 K:BB across 18.2 frames over four starts.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Officially dispatched to Triple-A

    The Red Sox optioned Bello to Triple-A Worcester on Friday.

    The move opens up a spot on the 26-man roster for trade pickup Joe La Sorsa, who was acquired from the Pirates earlier in the week. Bello has been hammered for a 6.34 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and an American League-high 43 earned runs across 61 innings this season. He'll try to figure things out in the minors.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Being sent to Triple-A

    The Red Sox intend to option Bello to Triple-A Worcester, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Bello was hammered for eight runs on seven hits and three walks across five innings in Thursday's loss to the Orioles. He had a brutal first inning, allowing nine of the first 10 batters to reach safely while being tagged for six runs. Through 61 innings this season, Bello has an ugly 6.34 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 44:24 K:BB, with a lot of those troubles coming during the first inning, when he's surrendered 15 earned runs. He'll try to iron things out in the minors with the hope of rejoining the Red Sox later this summer. Jake Bennett is believed to be a strong candidate to fill Bello's spot in the rotation, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Can't overcome rough first

    Bello (2-6) took the loss Thursday against the Orioles, allowing eight runs on seven hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out four.

    The Orioles got to Bello early and often Thursday, tagging the right-hander for six runs in the first inning, with nine of the first 10 batters reaching safely. Bello would eventually settle down and make it through five innings, but the Red Sox couldn't overcome the early deficit. Prior to his start Thursday, Bello made a pair of bulk-relief appearances where he allowed just two runs, both unearned, across 12 innings. Through 61 innings this year, Bello sports a 6.34 ERA with a 1.67 WHIP and 44:24 K:BB.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Stellar again in bulk relief

    Bello did not factor into the decision in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Guardians, allowing four hits and no walks with five strikeouts over seven scoreless innings.

    Bello entered in the second inning with a 4-0 deficit and dominated, needing just 63 pitches to complete seven scoreless frames while generating 11 whiffs. He'll finish May with a 2.67 ERA in 30.1 innings, with the bulk of his damage coming in his lone start of the month while he yielded just two earned runs across four relief appearances. He owns a 5.63 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 40:21 K:BB over 56 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup against the Orioles next week.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Following opener Friday

    Bello is set to pitch in bulk relief behind opener Tyler Samaniego during Friday's game against Cleveland, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.

    Bello will follow an opener for the fourth time in his last five outings, a strategy that has led to great success for the 27-year-old. He's posted a minuscule 0.98 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 17 strikeouts over 18.1 innings in his three appearances out of the bullpen so far this season.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Continues to thrive in long relief

    Bello took a no-decision Saturday against the Twins, allowing two unearned runs on eight hits and one walk in five innings of relief. He struck out five.

    Working as a bulk reliever for the Red Sox on Saturday, Bello managed his first scoreless outing of the campaign. The right-hander has fared far batter out of the bullpen this year, posting a superb 0.98 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 17:3 K:BB over 18.1 innings as a reliever as opposed to a ghastly 9.68 ERA, 2.25 WHIP and 18:18 K:BB across 30.2 frames as a starter. Given those splits, it would make sense for Boston to deploy Bello behind an opener again in his next scheduled appearance in Cleveland versus the Guardians.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Working behind Moran on Saturday

    Bello is slated to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Jovani Moran in Saturday's game against the Twins, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    For the third time in four appearances, Bello will be deployed out of the bullpen behind Moran. Boston handed Bello a traditional start in his last turn through the rotation Sunday in Atlanta, but the right-hander was lit up for seven earned runs on eight hits and three walks over five innings. The Red Sox will thus go back to an arrangement that has yielded strong results, with Bello having posted 1.35 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB in 13.1 innings between his previous two appearances in bulk relief.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Jumped early in loss

    Bello (2-5) took the loss against Atlanta on Sunday, allowing seven runs on eight hits and three walks with one strikeout over five innings.

    Bello allowed runs in four of his five innings pitched, including five across the game's first two frames. He generated just seven swinging strikes on 98 pitches and yielded 11 hard-hit balls in his first start since April 29 after two impressive performances in bulk relief to open May. The 27-year-old now owns an unsightly 7.16 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 30:20 K:BB across 44 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup against the Twins next weekend, though it's currently unclear in what role that will be.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Starting Sunday vs. Atlanta

    Bello will start in Sunday's series finale against Atlanta, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    The right-hander has worked behind opener Jovani Moran in each of his last two outings, but Bello will be the starter for Sunday's contest, rather than operate in a bulk-relief role. The 27-year-old pitched well in those last two appearances, allowing two runs and eight hits and two walks while striking out 12 across 13.1 innings.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Goes 6.1 innings as bulk reliever

    Bello didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with five strikeouts across 6.1 innings.

    Bello has worked behind opener Jovani Moran each of his last two outings, and Bello has responded well with just two runs allowed on eight hits and two walks with 12 strikeouts across 13.1 innings. The right-hander has lowered his ERA to 6.46 with a 29:17 K:BB across 39 innings this season. Look for Boston to potentially again use Bello behind Moran for his next outing since it's yielded positive results the past two times against Detroit and Philadelphia.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Working behind opener again

    Bello is slated to work in bulk relief behind an opener in Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    After Bello struggled to a 9.12 ERA and 2.26 WHIP while starting in his first six appearances of the season, the Red Sox opted to use him behind opening pitcher Jovani Moran during his latest turn through the rotation this past Tuesday against the Tigers. The arrangement paid immediate dividends, with Bello reaching season highs in innings (seven) and strikeouts (seven) while limiting Detroit to one earned run on four hits and one walk. The Red Sox will face some tough decisions with their rotation once Garrett Crochet (shoulder) potentially returns from the injured list later this month, so Bello may need another strong showing Tuesday to ensure he continues to be utilized as a starter or in a starter-like role.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Sharp as primary pitcher Tuesday

    Bello (2-4) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over seven relief innings in a 10-3 rout of the Tigers. He struck out seven.

    Working as a bulk reliever for the first time in 2026, the right-hander entered the game to begin the second inning after Jovani Moran had given up two runs as the opener. Bello responded with his best performance of the year, setting new season highs in innings and strikeouts while firing 66 of 94 pitches for strikes. It was a timely bounce-back effort, as Bello's rotation spot appears to be hanging by a thread with Sonny Gray (hamstring) due back Wednesday and Payton Tolle pitching well. Even after Tuesday's strong outing, Bello carries a 7.44 ERA, 1.93 WHIP and 24:16 K:BB through 32.2 innings. He'll need to string together another couple good starts to keep his job, beginning with a trip to the mound at home this weekend against the Rays.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Working as bulk reliever Tuesday

    Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said that Bello will be deployed as the bulk reliever behind opening pitcher Jovani Moran in Tuesday's game against Detroit, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Bello has struggled to work deep into outings in the early going of the 2026 campaign, so the Red Sox are electing to use him out of the bullpen for just the fourth time in his five-year big-league career. Moran is likely to cover just an inning or two before giving way to Bello, who owns a 9.17 ERA and 2.15 WHIP over 17.2 innings across his last four appearances.
