Thursday, October 15, 2009
News: The Red Sox have outrighted Saito off of their 40-man roster, the Boston Globe reports.
Analysis: This is likely a prelude to the club not picking up the 2010 option on his contract.
Wednesday, July 01, 2009
News: According to officials with other clubs, the Red Sox have made it known that Saito is available, the Boston Herald reports.
Analysis: Interest in Saito appears to be minimal despite a strong first half (3.25 ERA, 26 strikeouts in 27.2 innings). Saito has a partially torn tendon in his elbow and Boston has avoided using him on consecutive days. It's likely the elbow is scaring off teams. Another factor could be the incentives in Saito's contract.
