7 years agoBoston Red Sox pitcher Roenis Elias is being used as a reliever in spring training. Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reported Elias is throwing sidearm to lefty hitters. Elias has long been a starting pitcher but despite being 29 years old, he has not had a successful career. The last year he was productive was in 2015 for the Mariners. Elias had a 4.14 ERA with 97 strikeouts over 115 innings. At this point, he is trying to do anything possible to remain relevant and provide for the big league club. Elias is not relevant for fantasy.--Ellis Canady - RotoBaller
