Houck will return from Triple-A Worcester to start one game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Yankees, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's hardly a surprise, as the young right-hander was once again demoted after his last start Thursday, which has now happened after each of his past three big-league starts while he remains a regular piece of the rotation. Houck figures to return to the minors again after starting in the twin bill as the Red Sox are likely to continue taking advantage of the roster rules. The 25-year-old has a 2.93 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 44:7 K:BB in 30.2 innings over eight major-league appearances this season.
