Payton Tolle News: Date of next start uncertain
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Saturday that he's unsure if Tolle will start on four days' rest Wednesday versus Cleveland, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports
Tolle shined in his MLB debut Friday, allowing two runs on three hits with two walks and eight strikeouts over 5.1 innings in a no-decision against Pittsburgh. While the rookie southpaw should get another turn in the rotation, Healey notes that Tolle wasn't regularly pitching on four days of rest in the minors, so the Red Sox -- who will have an off day Thursday -- may opt to hold him back until next Friday's game in Arizona. That decision isn't set in stone yet, as Cora said the team is still thinking about who will start Wednesday.
