Garrett Whitlock will drop back into Red Sox rotation with a start against Diamondbacks

Whitlock had struggled in three starts this season, going 1-2 with a 6.19 ERA. Whitlock's changeup was one of the most effective in baseball in 2021 and 2022. With that, Whitlock missed his target, resulting in more pitches in the heart of the zone and fewer swings and misses. Before landing on the injured list, Whitlock had allowed a .400 average and .850 slugging percentage on changeups while allowing five extra-base hits on the pitch, one more than he gave up in all of 2022.
