Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Battling shoulder issue
Manager Alex Cora said after Wednesday's game versus Tampa Bay that Jansen is dealing with a shoulder injury, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Jansen struggled with command issues and decreased velocity during his outing Wednesday, which prompted a visit from Boston's training staff with two outs in the ninth inning. He was able to remain in the game and secure his 27th save of the season, but it's possible the Sox make the 36-year-old unavailable out of the bullpen over the next few days due to his shoulder.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Sharp for 26th save
Jansen (lat) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 7-5 win over the White Sox.
Jansen was dealing with a lat injury that made him unavailable to pitch Friday, two days after a four-run meltdown versus the Mets. He wasn't heavily tested in Saturday's contest, as he required just seven pitches (six strikes) to retire the side for his 26th save in 30 chances this season. Jansen is at a 3.62 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 58:18 K:BB through 49.2 innings, though he had allowed seven runs over 4.2 innings across his previous six appearances before his clean outing Saturday.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Unavailable due to lat issue
Jansen indicated after Friday's game against the White Sox that he was unavailable to pitch due to a lat issue, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
The Red Sox had a save situation in Friday's game, but Josh Winckowski got the call in the ninth inning instead. Jansen didn't provide a specific timeline for his return, saying that he wouldn't pitch again until the issue is fully resolved. Winckowski appears to be the next man up as closer, but Chris Martin, Justin Slaten and even Liam Hendriks (elbow) might also be factors in the ninth depending on how long Jansen is unavailable.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Blows save but grabs win Friday
Jansen (4-2) blew the save but picked up the win in Friday's 7-5 extra-inning win over Detroit, allowing a run on two hits in the ninth. He struck out two.
Called in to protect a one-run lead, Jansen gave up a leadoff single to Zach McKinstry before Jake Rogers laced a one-out double, tying the game at 4-4 and sticking Jansen with his fourth blown save this year. However, he'd wind up with the win after Boston responded with three runs in the top of the 10th. It's the first blown save in over a month for Jansen, who had allowed just two runs on two hits in his last 10 innings prior to Friday. The veteran closer has converted 25 of 29 save chances this year with a 2.98 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 56:15 K:BB across 48.1 innings.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Rebounds for 24th save
Jansen pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Astros.
Jansen was on the hook for a walk-off loss Monday, but he had no trouble protecting a one-run lead one day later. He needed just 12 pitches (eight strikes) for the save Tuesday. The veteran closer has allowed just one run while striking out nine over seven innings in August. He's up to 24-for-27 in save chances while pitching to a 2.78 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 53:15 K:BB over 45.1 innings this season.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Takes loss Monday
Jansen (3-2) was tagged with Monday's loss to the Astros, allowing one run on one hit while striking out one over one-third of an inning.
Jansen entered the ninth inning with the score tied and promptly dispatched Yordan Alvarez on three pitches. His fourth pitch, however, hung too high in the zone, and Yainer Diaz belted a no-doubt home run to left, giving Houston the walk-off win. Jansen had not allowed a hit or run in his previous six outings, spanning 6.2 innings.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Secures 23rd save
Jansen picked up the save in Friday's 12-10 victory over Baltimore, pitching a perfect inning with two strikeouts.
The veteran closer extended his scoreless appearances streak to five with this performance, retiring the side on a tidy 12 pitches. Jansen stands fourth all-time in career saves with 442, but he requires 37 more to pass Lee Smith for third place. After struggling in August with two blown saves and a 5.40 ERA over 10 innings, the Boston right-hander appears to have righted the ship and sports a 2.72 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 51:15 K:BB across 43 frames this season.
