It looks like more changes to the Red Sox bullpen came late last night. Most Red Sox fans wondered after Matt Albers was sent to the DL when and why the Red Sox didn’t do something about Dennys Reyes.
Well it looks like Sox fans got their wish as Joel Sherman of the New York Times tweeted to the world that Reyes was designated for assignment and since he has no options means cut from the team.
Though Reyes has not given up a run in his first three appearances in 2011, he hasn’t got the option to either. In every performance this season walking batters, his last appearance for the Sox Reyes got three earned runs after walking one and hitting two. His performance could be ruled ok up until this happened but this mishap has him off the team.
Coming up from AAA Pawtucket to take his place on the team will be Felix Doubront to take the lefty job in the pen for Tito.
Some discussed Albers and Reyes getting the job over others coming out of spring training and how this could be bad for the Sox. Well as we know it is a young season and things will change. Players will get injuried, while others will just not do their job and be DFA’d. That is the reason we have a Minor League system and we get great use out of it.
