According to Alex Speier of
WEEI.com,
the Red Sox have called up RHP Matt Barnes from AAA. Barnes, groomed as a starter, will pitch out of the bullpen for
The Carmine Hose for the balance of the year. Barnes was the team's first-round draft pick in 2011. His 2014 season has been generally rocky—but he has pitched well of late (seven shutout innings in a recent AAA playoff game). To compensate for the move,
Shane Victorino was moved from the 15-day to the 60-day DL.
