Hector Velázquez and Ryan Brasier reinstated to active roster

Everyone knows the Red Sox bullpen is a problem, and there really isn’t anyone in the organization that is going to be able to take it to the level it needs to be at. Yes, Durbin Feltman and Darwinzon Hernandez have very intriguing upside the likes of which is essentially unseen on the major-league roster. That said, both have shown they have some work to do to be major-league ready and even when they are they are extremely unproven.

Still, while the final version of this bullpen will almost certainly include someone from outside the organization making an impact, they also haven’t really been at full strength of late.
