INJURIES
Tallies first big-league win Fitts (1-3) earned the win in Monday's game against the Rockies, allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits and one walk across 5.2 frames. He struck out six.
Impact The 25-year-old finally picked up his first MLB win in his 12th career start despite entering this contest with a solid 3.33 ERA across 48.2 big-league innings. The lone run Fitts allowed in this contest came on a Brenton Doyle RBI single in the second, as the Boston right-hander allowed only one extra-base hit -- a double to his final batter faced, Thairo Estrada. In 33.2 innings this season, Fitts has pitched to a 4.28 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 28:10 K:BB. He is currently scheduled to make his next start against the Rays at home this weekend.

Red Sox Pitcher Richard Fitts Sets Lofty Goal For Himself Boston Red Sox pitcher Richard Fitts is focused on getting outs and winning games, but he also another goal in mind
JULY 3, 2025 • NESN.COM
Makes weather-shortened start Fitts struck out one and allowed one earned run on two hits and no walks in three innings in his start Tuesday against the Reds before the game was suspended in the top of the four...
Impact The two teams will resume the suspended game Wednesday before playing the series finale immediately after. The Red Sox were up 2-1 prior to the game being suspended, but because he didn't cover five innings and won't be asked to pitch again a day later, Fitts won't be in line for the win if Boston is able to maintain the lead for the rest of the contest. Assuming the Red Sox have Tanner Houck (elbow) make at least one more rehab start before activating him from the injured list, Fitts should be in line for at least one more turn through the rotation. Fitts' next start will likely fall during next Monday or Tuesday versus the Rockies at Fenway Park.

Getting another start Fitts is scheduled to make his next start Tuesday against the Reds at Fenway Park.
Impact Fitts will get a second straight turn through the Boston rotation after he returned from Triple-A Worcester and struck out six while allowing two earned runs over four innings in a no-decision versus the Angels this past Wednesday. Though Fitts will make for a volatile streaming option due to his issues in reining in the long ball -- he's allowed seven home runs through 25 big-league innings this season -- he could put himself in position for a longer-term stay in the Boston rotation with a positive showing Tuesday. Tanner Houck (elbow) could be ready to return from the injured list shortly before the All-Star break to reclaim a starting role, but the struggling Walker Buehler (four home runs allowed, 8:14 K:BB over his last three starts) may be at greater risk than Fitts of losing his rotation spot.

Red Sox Pitcher Lone Bright Spot In Loss To Angels The Boston Red Sox lost to the Los Angeles Angels to complete a disappointing series, but starting pitcher Richard Fitts pitched well.
JUNE 25, 2025 • NESN.COM
Fans six in no-decision Fitts came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Angels, giving up two runs on four hits and a walk over four innings. He struck out six.
Impact Making his first major-league start since June 2, Fitts once again had issues keeping the ball in the park, serving up back-to-back solo shots to Jo Adell and Travis d'Arnaud in the fourth inning before getting the hook after 83 pitches (58 strikes), including 15 swinging strikes. The six Ks were a season high, but the right-hander has now been taken deep seven times in his first 25 MLB innings this season, leading to a 4.68 ERA. Fitts' time in the rotation will likely end when Tanner Houck (elbow) or Hunter Dobbins (elbow) are ready to return, but for now he lines up to make his next start at home early next week against the Reds.

Drawing start Wednesday The Red Sox list Fitts as their probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Angels in Anaheim.
Impact As expected, Fitts will slide right into the rotation spot vacated by Hunter Dobbins (elbow), who was placed on the 15-day injured list Sunday. Fitts owns a 4.71 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB in 21 innings over five starts with the Red Sox this season, though a good chunk of that ratio damage came in a June 2 matchup against the Angels in which he surrendered three home runs in just one inning. After being optioned to Triple-A Worcester following that start, Fitts posted a 5.25 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 12 innings before being recalled Sunday.

Moves up from Triple-A The Red Sox recalled Fitts from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.
Impact Fitts last pitched for Worcester on Tuesday and could be available out of the bullpen for Sunday's series finale in San Francisco if needed, but the Red Sox will most likely stay away from him so that he can join the rotation for the team's upcoming three-game series in Anaheim that begins Monday. He'll be a logical replacement in the rotation for Hunter Dobbins (elbow), who was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Fitts was sent to Triple-A after the Angels roughed him up for six runs (five earned) in one inning June 2 in his second outing back from a stint on the injured list due to a pectoral strain, but the right-hander was solid his last time out for Worcester, striking out three batters and allowing two hits and no walks over five scoreless innings.
