Chris Sale Will Return As Starter
2 years agoThere has been some back and forth as to whether Boston Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale (ribs) will return to the team as a starter or a reliever once he's activated from the injured list, but skipper Alex Cora put any confusion to rest. "Chris Sale is a starter. Every five days, he not only has that day, he impacts the rest of the week. When he's on, he's one of the best. And the way he's throwing the ball right now, it looks like he's ready to go. But I see Chris as a starter." The 33-year-old southpaw still needs some time to throw simulated games and go on a minor league rehab assignment, but it looks like he won't be coming out of the bullpen at all when he makes his season debut, which is good news for his fantasy value.
