Red Sox's Yoel Espinal: Inks minor-league deal with Red Sox
Espinal agreed to a minor-league deal with the Red Sox on Sunday, Andersen Pickard of MLBDailyDish.com reports.
Espinal spent a majority of the 2019 season pitching for Double-A Frisco, posting a 5.84 ERA, 1.49 WHIP and 49 strikeouts across 28 innings in relief. The 27-year-old spent limited time at the Triple-A level during both the 2017 and 2019 seasons. It has yet to be determined at what minor-league level Espinal will begin pitching with the Red Sox organization, but it is unlikely that the right-hander will be able to reach the big-league bullpen given that the 2020 season is expected to be shortened significantly.
