Red Sox turn to #UConn's Matt Barnes in pitching rotation http://espn.go.com/blog/boston/red-sox/post/_/id/46196/red-sox-turn-to-matt-barnes-in-rotation


>>With Steven Wright going on the seven-day concussion DL after being struck with a batting practice fly ball earlier in the week, Boston Red Soxinterim manager Torey Lovullo announced that right-hander Matt Barnes will take Wright’s turn in the rotation on Monday.

Barnes, who has made 21 appearances out the bullpen this season over two stints with the club, has been stretched out to start since being optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket in July.

“We’ve asked a lot of him, moving back and forth between the rotation and the bullpen, but he’s very capable of that,” Lovullo said before Saturday’s game against the Seattle Mariners. “The last start he had, the word we got from player development was that it was aggressive. He was throwing a lot of his pitches in the zone and doing a good job.”

The 25-year-old Connecticut native and former UConn standout has a 5.64 ERA with the major league club this year and a 4.17 ERA in 16 appearances (including five starts) pitching for Pawtucket.<<
