Moran is off to a strong start to the 2026 season and has delivered a 2.33 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 17 strikeouts across 19.1 innings.

Jovani Morán: Breaking News
Clinches spot on Opening Day roster
Moran has secured a place on Boston's Opening Day roster, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports. Moran fared well in limited spring action, as he tossed 2.2 scoreless frames and struck out three in three appearances. The southpaw is out of minor-league options, which may have factored into Boston's decision to name him to the Opening Day roster. Moran pitched in two games a season ago for the Red Sox, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five over four innings of relief work.
Sent back to Triple-A
The Red Sox optioned Moran to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports. Moran will head back to Worcester as the Red Sox open up a spot in the bullpen for Justin Slaten (shoulder), who was reinstated from the injured list. After being recalled from Triple-A on Tuesday, Moran didn't make any relief appearances during his two-day stint with the big club.
