Red Sox Announce Roster Move Before Brewers
Before Monday’s series begins, the Red Sox have announced a roster move.
The Boston Red Sox wrote (via x): “The #RedSox today reinstated RHP Garrett Whitlock from the Paternity Leave List. To make room, Boston optioned RHP Tyler Uberstine to Triple-A Worcester.”
Uberstine’s Background
Uberstine was picked in the 19th round of the 2021 MLB Draft.
He has played in one career MLB game (this season).
The 26-year-old pitched 2.2 innings, allowing three hits, one earned run and one walk (with two strikeouts).
Tyler Milliken of Section 10 Podcast wrote: “Garrett Whitlock has been activated off the paternity list and Tyler Uberstine has been sent down, per @ChrisCotillo.
Credit to Uberstine. He was put in a tough spot yesterday and was really solid. Definitely will be back at some point.”
Whitlock’s Background

He has appeared in three games so far this season.
The 29-year-old is coming off a year where he went 7-3 with a 2.25 ERA in 62 games.
