EDGE Analysis

Elbow inflammation has kept the righty out of action since early May. Along with Tanner Houck (elbow), Seabold is one of two minor-league starting pitching options on Boston's 40-man roster. While he's not yet close to returning, Seabold may factor into the big-league pitching equation later this season for the Red Sox.
