The Boston Red Sox team still has the hope of taking one of the American League Wild Card spots that ensures their presence in the postseason, and that is why they made a new contract this Monday, taking over the services of a player who already knows what it is to play in the competitive East division of the young circuit.
This is Logan Gillaspe, whom the Boston organization hired this Monday followingnoon, following claiming it from waivers, from the Baltimore Orioles, following a series of movements that led the divisional leaders to leave the pitcher on assignment 26 years old.
Gillaspe made his MLB debut last year, and while he only pitched in 17 games, he became a utility arm for the Orioles that the Red Sox hope can help add depth to the organization. Still, the right-handed reliever’s numbers weren’t very positive this year, allowing six runs in nine innings to post a 6.00 ERA.

It is precisely for this reason that the Red Sox immediately following hiring him, sent their new player to the Triple A branch, and to make room for him within the roster of 40, the organization had to make an important decision with Jarren Durán.
After Jarren Durán recently suffered a foot injury as a result of a play at CF, the team announced that the player with Mexican roots would miss the rest of the season. That is why the Red Sox decided to transfer Durán from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day one, to open up a roster spot for Gillaspe.
The #RedSox today claimed RHP Logan Gillaspie off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles and optioned him to Triple-A Worcester.
To make room on the 40-man roster, the club transferred OF Jarren Duran to the 60-Day Injured List.
