Boston Red Sox
Where have you gone, Julian Tavarez?

DETROIT -- Julian Tavarez has been the forgotten man in the Red Sox bullpen. He hasn’t pitched in 11 days, since a one-inning outing at home against the Angels on April 24. He has been mentioned in Colorado as a reliever the Rockies might be interested in.
Manager Terry Francona said before last night’s game that he needs to get Tavarez in a game soon. The manager was referring to scraping the rust off the right-hander’s arm. But if the Sox are looking to move him, Tavarez would need to pitch to show other teams what he can do.
