We finally have a real long man out of the pen now. Pecking order is probably Hendriks, Kopech, Tepera, Bummer, Crochet, Heuer, Ruiz, Lopez.
July 30, 20214 yr Yeah, I wouldn't be sending down ReyLo, over a few other folks still on the roster. Burr was the right move, he has struggled lately.
July 30, 20214 yr ReyLo is going to have to stay if the Sox are going to start limiting starters' innings.

After going 42 pitches yesterday, he probably isn't available for a few days, but the Sox seem to be willing to work around it.

I'd really like to see the Sox pick up another reliever, doesn't have to be a closer, just someone decent, move Kopech to 2-4 innings as part of a tandem with Rodon. Kopech builds his arm up for post season starts or multi-innings, Rodon saves his arm for the postseason. A six man rotation for a month would be OK as well if you felt Cease and or Lucas could also use a break, some extra rest with the crazy 2020 season. Edited July 30, 20214 yr by South Side Hit Men

He's pitched well and can pitch multiple innings, the Sox can use both. I think the Sox will play with Lopez a little bit. I think soon they will give him a shot at holding a lead. I know that will freak everyone out but they also just might be content letting him pitch an inning or 2 when they are behind or spot start him since they have Tepera now but another reliever added and the Sox can seriously start getting Kopech stretched out.

July 30, 20214 yr If they just dealt Heuer, wouldn’t Tepera just take his place? Meaning Burr would be sent down tomorrow for Kimbrel? Or am I missing something? Edited July 30, 20214 yr by manbearpuig

Burr got sent down for Tepera. Kimbrel replaces Heuer. If Kimbrel can't get to Chicago from DC in time then the Sox will be a guy short tonight.

Yeah, like I said, that’s why I figured Burr wouldn’t sent down until tomorrow. But I guess there is enough time.
