Nick Pivetta placed on COVID list, Kutter Crawford to start Sunday

The Red Sox are still winning ballgames, but their COVID issues are not subsiding in any way. They have been adding what seems like a player a day over the last week-plus, and they’ve added another player Sunday morning. Nick Pivetta, who was scheduled to start the series finale against Cleveland, has been placed on the COVID list. Kutter Crawford is coming up for Worcester and making today’s start.

The #RedSox today placed RHP Nick Pivetta on the COVID-19 Related Injured List.

To fill Pivetta’s spot on the active major league roster, the Red Sox selected RHP Kutter Crawford from Triple-A Worcester.
