The Red Sox coaching staff will meet Monday to decide the next step for Eovaldi (shoulder), Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Red Sox were expected to decide next steps over the weekend, but Boston manager Alex Cora wants to take an extra day. Eovaldi hurled three innings Friday in a rehab start for Triple-A Worcester, during which the right-hander was mechanically off and gave up three hits, two walks and three runs. Cora said the pitcher was fine health-wise.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi threw 57 pitches (35 strikes) Friday after a 65-pitch simulated game to start the week. That puts him in line for a potential start in the majors before the season's end. The Red Sox will decide this weekend whether Eovaldi's next start will be for Boston. The right-hander last pitched for the Red Sox on Aug. 12.

Eovaldi (shoulder) will make a rehab start Friday with Triple-A Worcester, Joe McDonald of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran right-hander threw 65 pitches over four innings during a simulated game Sunday and will now head to the minors for a rehab outing. Given Eovaldi should continue building up his workload Friday, and if all goes well with Worcester he should be able to rejoin Boston's rotation next week.

Eovaldi (shoulder) threw four innings and 65 pitches in Sunday's simulated game and looked good, according to manager Alex Cora, Steve Hewitt of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

The next step for Eovaldi is to be determined, but it seems like he could rejoin the rotation next week if the Red Sox want to go that route. If he does return next week, he would line up to pitch next weekend in Yankee Stadium.

Eovaldi (shoulder) will throw another live BP on Sunday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi threw three innings of live batting practice Tuesday and will face hitters once again in a controlled environment this weekend. It's still possible that the right-hander requires a rehab assignment after Sunday's throwing session, and the Red Sox have emphasized that they don't intend to rush him back.

Eovaldi (shoulder) threw three innings of live batting practice Tuesday, the Red Sox' official site reports. "Yeah, he went three [innings]. That's a good sign," Red Sox manager Alex Cora said. "Now we'll just have to wait and see how he reacts to it and we'll decide what we're going to do."

EDGE Analysis

Cora indicated the goal was for Eovaldi to pitch two innings, but the right-hander felt good and kept pitching. Once he's evaluated Wednesday, Eovaldi could make a rehab start in the minors as early as this weekend.

Eovaldi (shoulder) will throw a live batting practice session Tuesday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

He has been playing catch and throwing bullpen sessions, so this will mark another step in his throwing program. It's unclear how much more work Eovaldi will do on the side before coming off the injured list.

Eovaldi (shoulder) will play catch Saturday and throw a bullpen session Sunday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Alex Cora said in early September that Eovaldi wasn't progressing as quickly as hoped, but the right-hander threw a bullpen late last week and will throw off a mound once again Sunday. The team remains hopeful that Eovaldi will be able to return from the injured list this season, and his next steps will likely be determined based on how he feels early next week.

Eovaldi (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Alex Cora said Friday that Eovaldi wasn't progressing as quickly as hoped, but it was encouraging that the right-hander was able to throw off a mound Friday. He's expected to throw another bullpen session Monday, so it seems possible that he'll be able to return prior to the end of the regular season.

Eovaldi (shoulder) threw recently but isn't progressing as quickly as the team had hoped, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi threw a bullpen session Monday and was expected to face hitters soon, but the Red Sox seem to be slowing his rehab process due to his lack of progress in recent days. It's not yet clear when the right-hander will ultimately be able to face hitters, but it's still possible that he rejoins Boston's rotation at some point in September.
