Red Sox call up newly acquired pitcher amid flurry of roster moves
The Red Sox made a series of roster moves ahead of Tuesday’s game, with the most notable being the addition of newly acquired right-hander Trey Wingenter to the active big league roster.
To clear space on the 40-man roster, the Red Sox designated right-hander Naoyuki Uwasawa for assignment. The club had already cleared a spot on the active big league roster Monday when they optioned left-hander Cam Booser to Triple-A.
In addition to the pitching shakeup, the Red Sox also optioned second baseman Enmanuel Valdez to Triple-A and called up infielder Jamie Westbrook.
Wingenter, who was acquired from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for minor league pitcher C.J. Weins on Saturday night, will pitch out of the bullpen in Boston and wear No. 61. The 30-year-old has appeared in 90 MLB games over three seasons, posting a 5.82 ERA over 87 innings, most recently in 2023. This season he has exclusively pitched in Triple-A, where he’s posted a 3.31 ERA in 32.2 innings.
