Brayan Bello - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Holds Cubbies in check Friday Bello didn't factor into the decision in the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Cubs, allowing four hits and a walk over four scoreless innings. He struck out two.

Impact The right-hander was lifted after just 58 pitches (39 strikes), denying him a shot at his seventh win of the season. The restricted workload suggests that Boston wants Bello to be available for the start of the postseason next week, and he's earned a prominent role by producing a 2.11 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 48:12 K:BB over 55.1 innings since rejoining the big-league staff just before the All-Star break.

Set for another start Bello will start Game 2 of Friday's doubleheader against the Cubs, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Bello will get another turn in the rotation after tossing eight innings of one-run ball, allowing five hits while striking out 11 batters Saturday versus the Rays. The right-handed pitcher has compiled a 2.28 ERA and 1.01 WHIP with 46 strikeouts over 51.1 innings in his last 13 appearances with Boston.

Ties career high with 11 strikeouts Bello didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rays, allowing one run on five hits over eight innings. He struck out 11 without walking a batter.

Impact The right-hander did everything he could to try and help Boston clinch a playoff spot, tying his career high with 11 Ks while firing 65 of 93 pitches for strikes. Bello has been impressive since returning to the big-league staff just before the All-Star break, and over his last 51.1 innings and 13 appearances (two starts) he's delivered a 2.28 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 46:11 K:BB. He lines up to make one more start in the regular season, at home next weekend against the Cubs, and another strong showing could earn Bello a spot in the Red Sox's postseason rotation plans.

Making start Saturday Bello will start Saturday's game against the Rays, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Impact Bello will draw another start after tossing five shutout innings against the Angels on Sept. 7 in what had been his first MLB start in three months. The 27-year-old threw 19 pitches in 1.2 innings out of the bullpen during his most recent outing Tuesday, but he should still be stretched out enough to pitch fairly deep into Saturday's contest.

Tosses five scoreless innings, earns win Bello (6-7) earned the win Monday against the Angels after allowing four hits and two walks while striking out seven over five scoreless innings.

Impact Bello returned to the rotation for his first start since June 4 and delivered five shutout frames. His biggest test came in the third, when Los Angeles loaded the bases with two outs, but Bello retired Moises Ballesteros to escape without damage. The right-hander recorded his seventh career scoreless start, but it remains to be seen whether he'll stay in the rotation since he'd been thriving out of the bullpen as well. Bello owns a 2.03 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over 62 innings as a reliever, but he's stretched out enough to mix between both roles down the stretch if the Red Sox need him to do so.

Making start Monday Bello will start Monday's game against the Angels.

Impact It's the first traditional start since early June for Bello, who has thrived as a bulk reliever this season with a 2.03 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over 62 innings. In eight starts, he's logged a 10.35 ERA and 2.22 WHIP. Bello threw 69 pitches in his last appearance and threw 94 in the outing prior to that, so he is stretched out to provide significant length.

SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to pitch in bulk role Monday Bello is expected to be used as a starter or bulk reliever in Monday's game against the Angels at Fenway Park, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

Impact Interim manager Chad Tracy is likely to lean heavily on Bello in some capacity Monday as the Red Sox look to build in an extra day of rest for all five members of their rotation. Though Bello has been tagged for eight runs over 7.1 innings in his last two extended relief appearances, he's performed well on the whole this season when he's been used out of the bullpen, turning in a 2.03 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 14.6 K-BB% across 62 frames.

SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Takes loss in bulk role Bello (5-7) took the loss against the Yankees in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader, allowing four runs on five hits and one walk while striking out two batters over 4.1 innings.

Impact Bello had largely thrived as a reliever coming into the contest, but it was a different story Saturday, as he was tagged for three runs during his first full inning of work. The right-hander's four total runs allowed were his most since Baltimore bombarded him for eight runs over five frames during a June 4 start. Bello threw 94 pitches in the outing, so he'll presumably be down several days in order to allow his arm to recover.

Red Sox overwhelm Diamondbacks 11-1 as all 9 starters drive in a run

Willson Contreras and Mickey Gasper homered, all nine Boston starters drove in at least one, and the Red Sox dismantled the Arizona Diamondbacks 11-1

AUGUST 18 • Associated Press

Picks up win in bulk relief Bello (5-6) was credited with the win against Arizona on Monday, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out three across 4.2 innings.

Impact Alec Gamboa served as Boston's opener, recording the first four outs before turning the keys over to Bello in the second inning. Bello allowed two singles in that same frame but escaped without issuing a run, and he kept the Diamondbacks off the board until the fifth inning on a Geraldo Perdomo sacrifice fly. Bello finished his outing having generated six whiffs and six groundouts while tossing 50 of his 76 pitches for strikes. Across 11 bullpen outings, he sports an 0.85 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 45:7 K:BB over 52.2 innings. The Red Sox appear content with their five-man rotation, but Bello should continue to see work in a bulk-relief role when interim manager Chad Tracy wants to give his starters some extra rest.

AUGUST 18 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to have big role Monday Bello is expected to pitch in bulk relief behind left-hander Alec Gamboa in Monday's game against the Diamondbacks at Fenway Park, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Gamboa has served as a swingman at Triple-A Worcester for a good chunk of the season and is capable of offering more length than the typical opener, but he might be capped at around one or two frames Monday since he'll be pitching on two days' rest after tossing three innings and 36 pitches in Friday's 8-4 loss to the Pirates. As a result, look for Bello -- who last pitched Aug. 9 -- to be called upon to provide length behind Gamboa. Bello has been hit hard over his eight starts this season, but he's been lights out in 10 relief appearances, pitching to an 0.75 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 42:6 K:BB across 48 innings. The 27-year-old righty could be a worthy streaming option Monday for fantasy managers looking to make up ground in the wins category.

AUGUST 17 • ROTOWIRE

Allows one run in bulk relief Bello did not factor into the decision in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Athletics, allowing one run on three hits and no walks with four strikeouts over four innings.

Impact Bello threw 34 of 51 pitches for strikes with seven whiffs and departed in line for a potential win before the Athletics rallied late. The 27-year-old continues to pitch well in a relief role, allowing just two earned runs over 22.2 innings since July 12. He owns a 4.84 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 64:27 K:BB across 83.2 frames overall this season, including eight starts and 10 relief appearances.
