The Boston Red Sox have sent right-hander Brayan Bello to Triple-A Worcester following a poor performance against the Baltimore Orioles. Bello allowed eight earned runs over five innings in a game the Red Sox lost 8-2. Left-hander Jake Bennett, 25, who has been impressive at Triple-A with a 1.60 ERA and 41 strikeouts, is a strong candidate to replace Bello in the rotation. The Red Sox will face the New York Yankees this weekend, with a decision on Bennett's call-up expected by Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays.
