Brayan Bello recently announced his departure..<\/p>\n
Brayan Bello News \u2014 Just recalled by Red Sox<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
*Latest: Back in Boston*<\/p>\n
– *Recalled July 12, 2026* from Triple-A Worcester<\/p>\n
– Red Sox brought him up before the All-Star break to help a taxed bullpen. Could pitch behind rookie Payton Tolle vs Mets on Sunday, or get used for multiple innings in the doubleheader vs Rays on Friday. 548b<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Interim manager Chad Tracy said Bello\u2019s role depends on the game: “multiple innings early or extra help later”. 548b<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
*Why he was sent down*<\/p>\n
– *Optioned June 5* after struggling: 2-6 with a 6.34 ERA in 12 appearances, 8 starts.<\/p>\n
– Got rocked for 8 runs vs Baltimore. As a starter this year: 10.35 ERA in 8 starts.<\/p>\n
– But as a bulk reliever: 0.71 ERA in 25 1\/3 IP. In 4 appearances behind an opener: 2 ER in 25 1\/3 IP. 548b0ce965d69c3d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Bello wasn\u2019t happy about the bullpen talk after the Baltimore start:<\/p>\n
> “Just stop talking about bullpen and starting games. I’ve always been a starter” 0ce9<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He said he “shed some tears” after the demotion because “I have so much love and passion for this game”. 8415<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
*In Triple-A*<\/p>\n
– 4 starts: 4.34 ERA, 22 Ks in 18 2\/3 IP<\/p>\n
– First start: 4 IP, 2 ER, 5 Ks, 0 BB<\/p>\n
– Red Sox had him “touch the mound” between starts for drill work on offspeed 548b65d6<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
*The bigger picture*<\/p>\n
Bello signed a 6-year, $55M extension in March 2024. He\u2019s owed $8.7M in 2027, $16.2M in 2028, $19.2M in 2029.<\/p>\n
Career: 41-42, 4.32 ERA in 112 appearances. Had a breakout 2025: 11-9, 3.35 ERA. 0ce99e53548b8415<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Red Sox CBO Craig Breslow said the goal in Worcester was for him to “fall in love with baseball all over again”. 0ce9<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
*Bottom line*: Bello is back up right now as depth before the break. With Crochet on 60-day IL, Boston needs innings. Expect him to be a swingman \u2014 start or long relief \u2014 until he proves he can stick in the rotation again. 0ce9<\/p>\n
