Bello did not factor into the decision in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Guardians, allowing four hits and no walks with five strikeouts over seven scoreless innings. Bello entered in the second inning with a 4-0 deficit and dominated, needing just 63 pitches to complete seven scoreless frames while generating 11 whiffs. He'll finish May with a 2.67 ERA in 30.1 innings, with the bulk of his damage coming in his lone start of the month while he yielded just two earned runs across four relief appearances. He owns a 5.63 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 40:21 K:BB over 56 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup against the Orioles next week.

Brayan Bello: Breaking News
Following opener Friday
Bello is set to operate in bulk relief behind opener Tyler Samaniego on Friday against Cleveland, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports. Bello will follow an opener for the fourth time in his last five outings, a strategy that has led to great success for the 27-year-old. Bello has posted a minuscule 0.98 ERA and 1.04 WHIP with 17 strikeouts over 18.1 innings in his three previous appearances out of the bullpen this year. He'll look to keep up the strong work on the mound versus the Guardians.
Continues to thrive in long relief
Bello took a no-decision Saturday against the Twins, allowing two unearned runs on eight hits and one walk in five innings of relief. He struck out five. Working as a bulk reliever for the Red Sox on Saturday, Bello managed his first scoreless outing of the campaign. The right-hander has fared far batter out of the bullpen this year, posting a superb 0.98 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 17:3 K:BB over 18.1 innings as a reliever as opposed to a ghastly 9.68 ERA, 2.25 WHIP and 18:18 K:BB across 30.2 frames as a starter. Given those splits, it would make sense for Boston to deploy Bello behind an opener again in his next scheduled appearance in Cleveland versus the Guardians.
