Well, the expected has now become a reality.
On Monday ahead of a Spring Training game Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora announced his starting rotation for the first time.
It also appears with the optioning of reliever Brandon Workman that Marcus Walden will be with the big league club to start the season rather than be in Pawtucket.
Steven Wright was also placed on the 10-day-dl.
Prior to tonight’s game against the Chicago Cubs, the #RedSox placed RHP Steven Wright on the 10-day disabled list. Wright is recovering from a cartilage restoration procedure performed on his left knee on May 8, 2017.
