Nationals' Sean O'Sullivan: Inks MiLB deal with Washington
Sean O'Sullivan signed a minor-league contract with the Washington Nationals on Sunday.O'Sullivan will return stateside after opening the season with the Nexen Heroes of the Korean Baseball Organization. Nexen granted O'Sullivan his release in May after the right-hander served up 14 runs over eight innings, but it appears the Nationals think he could still fortify the team's pitching depth at Triple-A Syracuse. O'Sullivan last appeared in the big leagues in 2016 with the Red Sox, making five appearances and turning in a 6.75 ERA.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Activated from disabled list, sent to Triple-A
Sean O'Sullivan (knee) was activated off the disabled list Thursday, and outrighted to Triple-A Pawtucket, Evan Drellich of the Boston Herald reports.O'Sullivan had been on the DL for just over a month after dealing with left knee tendinitis. He recently completed a rehab assignment with Pawtucket, but was roughed up pretty good, allowing six runs on six hits in three innings. The team decided to keep him with the Triple-A team, but O'Sullivan will likely come back to the majors before the end of the month.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Will start rehab Thursday
Sean O'Sullivan (knee) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Pawtucket on Thursday, Ryan Hannable of WEEI reports.While his rehab seems to be progressing well, with the trades the Boston Red Sox have made at the deadline, it seems O'Sullivan likely won't figure into the big league rotation, and may not even get a place in the big league bullpen. He'll likely offer rotation depth at Triple-A once his rehab is complete.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Lands on 15-day DL
Sean O'Sullivan was placed on the 15-day DL on Saturday with left knee tendinitis, Tim Britton of the Providence Journal reports.This move conveniently opens up a roster spot for Brad Ziegler, who is expected to be activated Sunday. O'Sullivan has struggled in 21.1 innings with the big club this year, but the Boston Red Sox have won in all four of his starts with the offense exploding for 39 runs in those four games. It's entirely possible O'Sullivan will return to a starting role once healthy, but his window to start may shut in a hurry as the Red Sox figure to be in pursuit of rotation help at the trade deadline.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Turns in serviceable outing in Friday start
Sean O'Sullivan didn't factor into the decision versus the Rays on Friday, giving up four earned runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out four.After 93 pitches over five innings and having seen a 4-2 lead evaporate, manager John Farrell didn't want to push his luck with the erratic O'Sullivan. The veteran righty's performance was serviceable, but he did give up a Brad Miller sacrifice fly and Evan Longoria RBI single in his final inning of work, allowing the Rays to erase a two-run deficit. It remains to be seen if O'Sullivan will hang on to his rotation spot following the All-Star break.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Will get another start
Sean O'Sullivan will start Friday's game against the Rays, Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal reports.It came down to O'Sullivan or Clay Buchholz, and O'Sullivan earned a second start after he carried a shutout into the sixth inning of Sunday's win over the Angels. An additional factor was that manager John Farrell liked the idea of having Buchholz available out of the bullpen a day earlier than O'Sullivan would be available. We're taking this one day at a time with O'Sullivan as the fourth starter, but presuming he pitches well Friday, he'll remain in the rotation following the All-Star break.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Picks up the win in spot start
Sean O'Sullivan allowed two runs on four hits and three walks while striking out two in Boston's win over the Angels on Sunday.The Boston Red Sox were in tatters following Saturday's embarrassing 21-2 loss. Apart from Saturday's ignominy, Boston's starters have pitched poorly of late and the bullpen has been taxed. So it was the journeyman O'Sullivan, called up from Triple-A to make a spot start, given the responsibility of stabilizing the team, and he did just that. It was an effort that earned him the adulation of Fenway Park and most likely another start this coming Friday against the Rays. Beyond the top three in the rotation -- David Price, Rick Porcello and Steven Wright -- the Red Sox are looking for someone, anyone, to grab hold of the final two spots.

Red Sox's Sean O'Sullivan: Contract purchased from Triple-A, will start Sunday
Sean O'Sullivan's contract was purchased from Triple-A Pawtucket, MLB.com reports. He'll get the start Sunday against the Angels.The Boston Red Sox have been able to get by with a four-man rotation of late due to scheduling quirks, but with the team in the midst of a stretch of six games in as many days, O'Sullivan was needed to make a spot start. The team could surely use O'Sullivan to eat some innings after starter Clay Buchholz and the bullpen were pummeled for 21 runs in Saturday's loss, but don't count on pretty numbers from the right-hander, who has surrendered 10 earned runs on 19 hits and two walks over 11.1 innings with the Red Sox this season.
