Moves to minors Seabold was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Seabold will shift to minor-league camp after opening spring training with the big club. The right-hander made his MLB debut last season with a three-inning appearance but spent most of the year with Worcester, where he had a 3.50 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 52:19 K:BB over 54 frames.

Pitching in AFL Seabold (undisclosed) is scheduled to make a start Tuesday in the Arizona Fall League, Josh Norris of Baseball America reports.

Impact Seabold was pulled early in his penultimate start at Triple-A Worcester on Sept. 26 due to an unspecified injury, but he was able to return to the mound a week later to make his final start of the season for the affiliate. He tossed five innings of one-run ball in that contest, and the Red Sox's decision to send him to the AFL implies no concerns about his health heading into the offseason.

Exits with apparent injury Seabold left his start for Triple-A Worcester in the third inning and was checked out by a team trainer, Joe McDonald of the Worcester Telegram reports.

Impact Seabold presumably suffered some sort of injury, the nature and severity of which are not yet clear. He made his major-league debut in mid-September but was sent down after just a single start, so any potential injury likely won't have a significant impact on the Red Sox over the final week of the season.

Returns to minors Seabold was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact The righty made his MLB debut in a spot start Saturday, going three innings and allowing two runs on three hits. Barring additional COVID-19 cases in Boston's rotation, Seabold figures to remain with Worcester for the remainder of the season. Nick Pivetta (COVID-19) was activated to fill Seabold's roster spot and start Sunday's game.

Unimpressive MLB debut Seabold didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 9-8 extra-inning win over the White Sox, giving up two runs on three hits and two walks over three innings. He failed to strik...

Impact Making his big-league debut, the right-hander was held to 43 pitches (27 strikes) before getting pulled with Boston ahead 7-2, but the bullpen promptly allowed Chicago to tie things up with a five-run fourth inning. Seabold didn't fool anyone in this outing, but his chances of making another start next week for the Red Sox will depend more on whether Chris Sale or Nick Pivetta will be cleared to come off the COVID-19 list rather than his own performance.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Making big-league debut Saturday Seabold will start Saturday's game against the White Sox, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact The 25-year-old righty is one of Boston's top pitching prospects and may have debuted earlier in the year if he hadn't missed the first few months of the season with an elbow injury. He has a 3.29 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 43 strikeouts in 38.1 innings across his last seven starts at Triple-A. With Chris Sale and Nick Pivetta on the COVID-19 injured list, it's possible Seabold could stick around to make another start.

Strong candidate to start Saturday Seabold is currently with the Red Sox as a member of the taxi squad and is a strong candidate to start Saturday against the White Sox, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Impact Cora said that there a "few guys on the taxi squad" with the club in Chicago that could fill in for Chris Sale (COVID-19), but Seabold figures to be the obvious choice. The right-hander last pitched for Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, so he'll be on six days rest if he makes his major-league debut against the Pale Hose as expected. Seabold has a 3.67 ERA and 44:13 K:BB across 41.2 innings at Worcester.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scratched from start Seabold was scratched from his scheduled start Friday for Triple-A Worchester, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact The 25-year-old was scratched as a result of the Red Sox wanting to keep fresh arms available in case of further COVID-19 infections. Teammate Kutter Crawford was scratched from his start Thursday for the same reason.

Rejoining Triple-A rotation Triple-A Worcester will activate Seabold (elbow) from the 7-day injured list and have him start Friday's game against Lehigh Valley, Jenna Ciccotelli of NESN.com reports.

Impact Seabold will be making his 2021 debut at a full-season affiliate after checking out fine following his two rehab outings in the rookie-level Florida Complex League earlier this month. The 25-year-old first experienced elbow inflammation shortly before Worcester started its season in early May, prompting the Red Sox to take a cautious approach with his rehab. Since he covered only three innings in his final rehab start in the FCL, Seabold will likely have a restricted pitch count in Friday's outing.

Begins rehab assignment Seabold (elbow) allowed two runs on one hit and three walks across 2.2 innings during his first rehab outing with the club's Gulf Coast League affiliate Monday. He struck out seven...

Impact Seabold's season at Triple-A Worcester was paused in early May due to inflammation in his elbow. He was able to begin a throwing program just a few weeks later before progressing to tossing bullpens in mid-June. The righty will likely get a few more outings under his belt in the lower levels of the minors before being activated. Seabold, who currently holds a spot on the 40-man roster, could be a candidate to join the big club later this season, either as a starter or a long reliever.

JULY 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Progresses to live batting practice Seabold (elbow) threw a live batting practice session this week, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Elbow inflammation has kept the righty out of action since early May. Along with Tanner Houck (elbow), Seabold is one of two minor-league starting pitching options on Boston's 40-man roster. While he's not yet close to returning, Seabold may factor into the big-league pitching equation later this season for the Red Sox.

JULY 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Throws bullpen Friday Seabold (elbow) threw 25 pitches in a bullpen session Friday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Seabold began a throwing program in mid-May, and he was able to throw off a mound Friday. The right-hander will likely need to build back up since he's been sidelined since early May with elbow inflammation, but he's making progress in his recovery.

Connor Seabold Gives Chris Sale Endorsement After Watching Him Throw Boston Red Sox prospect Connor Seabold got to see some Chris Sale bullpen sessions, and he thinks there's plenty to be excited about.

JUNE 8, 2021 • NESN.COM

Begins throwing program Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Thursday that Seabold (elbow) has started a throwing program, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Impact Seabold is likely just throwing off flat ground at this point, but the activity at least represents a positive sign for the right-hander, who has been shut down since the beginning of the month with elbow inflammation. Once the 25-year-old completes a throwing progression that will likely span multiple weeks, he should slot into the Triple-A Worcester rotation.

MAY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not throwing yet Seabold (elbow) is not throwing yet, but he is starting to feel better, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Seabold is dealing with elbow inflammation. The injury was expected to be minor, though he it appears it will still be a while before he is able to retake the mound for Triple-A Worcester. He posted a 2.25 ERA and 1.12 WHIP and a 30:10 K:BB across 40 innings with Double-A Reading in 2019.
