Breslow, who was first in a line of relievers to pitch nine innings Saturday, may be in line for another start as the Red Sox will use their bullpen once again for one of the games against Cleveland at the end of the week, the Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Red Sox will use another collection of relievers, essentially taking Eduardo Rodriguez's rotation spot. Breslow pitched four scoreless innings in Saturday's win, but it wasn't enough innings to get the "W" which went to second reliever Heath Hembree.

Breslow came through with a strong effort Saturday, throwing four scoreless innings and giving up two hits and two walks while striking out two.

EDGE Analysis

He didn't last long enough to be eligible for the win, but Breslow got the Red Sox 'bullpen day' off to a rousing start. He'll likely return to relief work for the final week of the season.

Breslow will start Saturday against the Orioles, Sean McAdam of CSNNE.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Red Sox, wanting to limit Eduardo Rodriguez's usage at this point in the season, will turn to Breslow for a spot start against Baltimore. Interim manager Torey Lovullo said it will be a "bullpen game" for Boston on Saturday, with Breslow likely available for around 40 pitches. The 35-year-old journeyman has posted a 4.53 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in 55.2 innings this season.

Breslow recorded the final out to log his first save of the season as the Red Sox defeated the Mets 6-4 in 10 innings Friday night.

EDGE Analysis

Breslow got the call when Junichi Tazawa allowed a run on a hit and four walks, and he retired the only hitter he faced. The veteran lefty has a 4.25 ERA, but he is generally used as a specialist and does not really profile as a closer even though he has eight saves in his career. That said, the Red Sox bullpen is in total disarray - understatement - so it isn't impossible.

Breslow was activated from the paternity list Monday. After spending the weekend with his family, Breslow returns on Monday for the beginning of the Red Sox' home stand against the Braves. His return sends first baseman Travis Shaw back to Triple-A Pawtucket.

Breslow was placed on the paternity leave list Friday. Breslow will be required to miss at least one game, so he'll be eligible to return as early as Sunday in Houston. To take his spot on the 25-man roster, Heath Hembree was called up from Triple-A Pawtucket.

Breslow gave up a hit, a walk and allowed two inherited runners to score in Thursday afternoon's loss to the Twins. After a nice start to the season, Breslow has been knocked around. He's allowed runs in seven of his last 11 appearances (10 earned runs in 11.1 innings) and has fallen behind Tommy Layne as the preferred left-hander when crucial outs are needed.

Breslow pitched two scoreless innings in Boston's 19-inning win over the Yankees on Friday. Breslow has worked three innings over the past two games and may not be available Saturday. The left-hander is coming off the worst season of his career, but by all accounts was much healthier this spring than he was in 2014. He'll work primarily in middle relief.

Breslow tossed a scoreless inning in Wednesday's game against the Twins. He's made four spring appearances without giving up a run. This is night-and-day from last spring when a sore shoulder delayed Breslow until late in training camp and he opened the regular season on the disabled list. He's been effective this spring and has bounced back quickly following his outings.

Breslow's fastball is up to 91-92 mph, much more velocity than he had at this time last season, WEEI.com reports. "I've never thrown this hard at this point in spring training," said Breslow, "Usually I'm at 86-87. It just feels really good coming out of my hand right now." Breslow tossed a scoreless inning Wednesday, giving up a hit and a walk, and is encouraged by how his arm feels at this stage. He hasn't allowed a run in three spring outings.
