The Red Sox are resting their pitching staff as they coast toward the playoffs, with Jake Bennett getting a well-earned nine-day break before his Sunday showdown against the Giants. While starters are recovering, the bullpen—though stellar all year—may be showing early signs of fatigue. But there’s good news: Tanner Houck, once an All-Star, is making solid progress in rehab, throwing to hitters with full velocity. This weekend’s series brings a reunion with Rafael Devers, while former teammate Marcelo Mayer, still sidelined from injury, won’t play. Trevor Story, also injured, might return this weekend—giving fans hope for a potential infield reunion.
