Brayan Bello isn’t a lock tonight after a 28-pitch appearance in Game 2, and Boston’s bullpen might be asked to carry the load as the series tightens. Cora could lean on Early, Harrison, or Weissert to bridge if Bello isn’t ready, preserving the youngster for a potential late run. The bullpen’s 5 2/3 innings of two runs kept the Sox in it, but every unused arm matters now. Boone’s lefty-heavy approach and lineup tinkering add another layer of chess-match nuance, highlighting why depth and usage will decide the next turns in this playoff push.

Fantasy players should watch Bello’s availability and the bullpen corps closely, and consider rostering the long-relievers who may be asked to mount longer outings. If Bello does push through, expect a short leash and a quick pull if stuff falters. The drama around who gets used when—especially with Chapman, Early, Harrison, and Weissert—could swing leverage in multiple wins, making tonight a pivotal test of Boston’s depth and strategic bravado.
