Red Sox recall Alec Gamboa as bullpen shakeup follows Blue Jays loss

The Boston Red Sox recalled left-handed pitcher Alec Gamboa from Triple-A Worcester on August 12, 2026, after losing four consecutive games, including two against the Toronto Blue Jays. To accommodate Gamboa's addition, right-handed pitcher Seth Martinez was designated for assignment. Gamboa has a 2.08 ERA in seven major league appearances this season. This move comes as the team seeks to regain momentum, following a period of success before this losing streak. Boston has two games remaining against the Blue Jays to attempt to reverse their fortunes.
