Summary
Red Sox pitcher Brayan Bello’s rough season culminates in a demotion to Triple-A after a disastrous start where he surrendered six runs in the first inning — a pattern that’s plagued him all year despite a strong 2023. With the team’s rotation shaky and ace Garrett Crochet sidelined, Bello’s struggles make this move a necessary reset, even if it stings given his lucrative contract. In a corresponding move, the Red Sox acquired reliever Joe La Sorsa from Pittsburgh for cash — a veteran with a rocky past but recent Triple-A promise and World Baseball Classic experience with Team Italy. The Red Sox now look to Jake Bennett or soon-to-return Patrick Sandoval to fill the fifth starter void, while La Sorsa’s effectiveness remains a question mark — but in a tight rotation, it’s a gamble worth taking.
