17 Nathan Eovaldi SP

Eovaldi (4-2) pitched six shutout innings, allowing seven hits and a walk while striking out eight in a win over the Orioles on Wednesday.

Eovaldi was locked in during this start, and the Red Sox offense gave him plenty of breathing room. The right-hander didn't allow a run over his last 11 innings this season. He finishes the season with a 3.72 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 52:7 K:BB across 48.1 innings.

Eovaldi (3-2) secured the win after allowing two hits and striking out seven over five scoreless innings Thursday against the Marlins.

Eovaldi displayed excellent control in this one, firing first-pitch strikes to 13 of the 19 batters he faced. The Red Sox scored two runs in the top of the sixth, putting Eovaldi in line for the victory. The right-hander has looked sharp over his last three outings, surrendering just two runs on eight hits while fanning 17 over 15 innings.

Eovaldi allowed a leadoff home run in a no-decision against the Rays on Saturday. He gave up one run on three hits while striking out four over three innings.

Eovaldi hadn't pitched in 22 days, so it was natural to wonder if he would be rusty. That appeared to be the case when the first batter he faced, Austin Meadows, took him deep, but Eovaldi settled in after that. He'll get two more starts over the last 13 games to build momentum toward 2021. Eovaldi's next start comes Friday at home against the Yankees.

Eovaldi (calf) was activated from the injured list as expected and will start against the Rays on Saturday.

Eovaldi hasn't pitched in over three weeks with a strained right calf. He's trimmed his ERA by over a run this season, though it still sits at an unimpressive 4.98. Matt Hall was optioned in a corresponding move.

Eovaldi (calf) will be activated off the 10-day injured list to start Saturday at Tampa Bay, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

The veteran right-hander will end up missing just under two weeks with the mild calf strain. Eovaldi had his best start of the season in his previous outing with seven one-run innings, and he'll look to pick up where he left off against the Rays.

Eovaldi (calf) threw a bullpen session Wednesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Eovaldi was able to throw without feeling discomfort in his leg, putting him in line to return this weekend. The Red Sox are targeting a start Saturday, though it would likely be a short outing.

Eovaldi (calf) could return this weekend in Tampa Bay or next week in Miami, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

He will throw a bullpen session in Philadelphia on Wednesday, so he could return Friday or Saturday at the earliest, or Boston could give him more time if necessary. Eovaldi has flashed brilliance this season, but only three of his six starts have been quality. His best start was his most recent start Aug. 20, when he struck out six and allowed one run over seven frames against the Orioles.

Eovaldi (calf) threw a bullpen session Sunday, Julian McWilliams of the Boston Globe reports.

Eovaldi came out of the bullpen session feeling well and has another bullpen scheduled for Wednesday in Philadelphia during the team's off day. There's a chance he comes off the injured list for the series against the Rays that begins Thursday or the next series against the Marlins.

Eovaldi (calf) will throw at least one more bullpen session before returning to the rotation, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Eovaldi threw a bullpen session Thursday, but he was still feeling that his calf wasn't 100 percent, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports. Manager Ron Roenicke said the right-hander will throw a bullpen Sunday and could throw another Tuesday. This means Eovaldi will not start Sunday, a projection that was never set in stone.

Eovaldi (calf) could come off the 10-day injured list to start Sunday against the Blue Jays, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

The Red Sox had been hoping Eovaldi might start Saturday, but they pushed those plans to wait and see how he responds to a bullpen session that is scheduled for Thursday. Eovaldi hasn't pitched since Aug. 20 due to a right calf strain.

The Red Sox announced Saturday that they put Eovaldi (calf) on the 10-day injured list with a "very mild strain" and have activated Chris Mazza to start Sunday's game, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

It was originally presumed that Eovaldi was dealing with some cramping in his right calf but it appears as though the injury is slightly more severe. He will go on the 10-day injured list retroactive to Aug. 26, meaning he can be activated as soon as Sept. 5. Manager Ron Roenicke does expect Eovaldi to return in a week's time and start upon being activated, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Eovaldi's (calf) scheduled start Sunday was pushed back, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

Eovaldi reportedly felt better following a recent bullpen session, but he's still dealing with some calf discomfort and won't be ready to take the mound Sunday against the Nationals. Zack Godley will start in his place. It's unclear when Eovaldi could take the mound.

Eovaldi's next turn had been pushed back to Saturday because of cramping in his right calf, but then Boston rejiggered its rotation following Thursday's postponement. The series against the Nationals lines up as Martin Perez throwing Friday, Chris Mazza on Saturday and Eovaldi in the series finale.

Eovaldi (calf) will throw a bullpen session Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Eovaldi's scheduled start for Wednesday was pushed back due to cramping in his right calf, but he'll test things out by throwing Thursday. He'll be able to start Saturday's game against the Nationals if all goes well during his bullpen session. The right-hander has made six starts to begin the season, posting a 4.98 ERA and 33:6 K:BB over 34.1 innings.

Eovaldi's scheduled start was pushed back to Saturday due to cramping in his right calf, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Eovaldi was expected to toe the rubber Wednesday against the Blue Jays, but he'll be unable to do so as he nurses a calf issue. Instead, Colten Brewer will start for the Red Sox. However, if he heals well, Eovaldi should be in line to start at home Saturday against the Nationals.

Eovaldi (2-2) earned the win against Baltimore on Thursday, hurling seven innings and allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out six.

Eovaldi picked up his first win since Opening Day -- also against the Orioles -- with the dominant performance. The right-hander threw 64 of 97 pitches for strikes while walking less than two batters for the fifth time in six starts. His lone blemish was a solo home run served up to Pat Valaika in the seventh inning. Eovaldi will carry a 4.98 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB into his next start, which is scheduled for Wednesday, on the road against the Blue Jays.

Eovaldi (1-2) took the loss against the Yankees on Saturday, throwing 5.1 innings and allowing eight runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out three.

Eovaldi entered the contest with a 4.09 ERA and departed with the mark having swollen to 5.93. He was burned by three long balls in the contest, the last of which -- a three-run shot off the bat of Clint Frazier -- contributed to a four-run sixth inning that ultimately forced him from the game. The right-hander did induce 14 swinging strikes, but he managed to whiff only three batters -- a season low, and a dramatic dropoff from the 10 strikeouts he racked up in his previous outing. Eovaldi will attempt to regroup when he heads to Baltimore to take on the Orioles on Friday in his next scheduled start.

Eovaldi allowed three earned runs on six hits and no walks while striking out 10 across six innings Sunday against the Blue Jays. He did not factor into the decision.

Eovaldi racked up strikeouts on the strength of 19 swinging strikes on 91 total pitches. He did allow two solo home runs -- one to Bo Bichette and the other to Cavan Biggio -- to account for the majority of the damage against him. Still, it was a relatively strong outing for Eovaldi, who now has an impressive 24:3 K:BB to go along with a 4.09 ERA and 1.27 WHIP across 22 innings. He's currently projected to make his next start Friday at the Yankees.

Eovaldi (1-1) allowed four earned runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six across five innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Rays.

Eovaldi shut the Rays down through 3.2 innings, but allowed a walk, single, and double consecutively to account for two runs in the fourth frame. He then allowed the first three batters he faced to reach base in the fifth inning -- including a triple to Austin Meadows -- accounting for the final two runs he surrendered. More positively, Eovaldi did rack up strikeouts on the strength of 12 swinging strikes on 85 total pitches. Through three starts, Eovaldi has managed a 3.94 ERA with a 14:3 K:BB across 16 innings. He's scheduled to take the mound next Monday in a rematch against the Rays.

Eovladi picked up a no-decision Wednesday, allowing two runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings in a 6-5 win over the Mets.

Eovaldi put the Red Sox in a position to halt their four-game losing skid against Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom. Eovaldi is bearing the mantle of Boston's No. 1 starter well through the first two starts, posting a 2.45 ERA and 1.36 WHIP.
