The Red Sox have promoted Hunter Dobbins to Triple-A Worcester, according to Ed Hand on X, formerly known as Twitter. On Tuesday night, Dobbins turned in his second consecutive outing of six innings and no runs allowed.
Dobbins’ Tuesday night outing lowered his season ERA to 3.17 across 105 total innings. Across his last five outings, he has pitched 26.1 innings, allowing just three earned runs and producing 25 strikeouts.
Among all pitchers at the Double-A level or higher who have thrown at least 100 innings, he has the 8th lowest ERA.
On the latest episode of Down In The Dugout, the 24-year-old pitcher talked about his evolving pitch arsenal.
“We changed it [the splitter] to a splinker, I’m throwing it about 88-91,” Dobbins said. “That’s been a big swing and miss pitch over the last few weeks. We just switched over to a sweeper as well, which is going to compliment it.”
A slew of movement recently for the Sea Dogs, recently losing Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony, Kyle Teel, and Kristian Campbell to Triple-A Worcester, Dobbins will be joining the WooSox as well.
