Boston shuffled its rotation and future: Walker Buehler was released after a rough season, and Payton Tolle will debut at the major league level as Nick Sogard returns to the big leagues. Buehler signed a one-year pact with a mutual option for 2026 but posted a 7-7 record with a 5.45 ERA in 23 appearances, mostly in relief. Tolle, a 2024 second-round pick from TCU, is slated to debut against Paul Skenes and the Pirates, while Sogard adds infield depth behind the Sox.
