Recalled by Boston Brewer was recalled by the Red Sox on Friday.

Impact Brewer hasn't yet made a major-league appearance this year, but he posted a 9.00 ERA and 1.75 WHIP in four innings across four relief appearances for Triple-A Worcester. He should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever with the big-league club.

Battling shoulder inflammation Brewer was diagnosed with right shoulder inflammation following a recent bullpen session, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Impact Brewer was believed to be a candidate for a promotion to the big club Wednesday to serve as the 27th man for the Red Sox's doubleheader with the Twins, but his injury nixed those plans. Instead, Boston called up reliever Eduard Bazardo.

Faces hitters Sunday Brewer (finger) pitched a live batting practice session Sunday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Brewer ended the past season on the injured list after sustaining a right third finger strain Sept. 1, but he's seemingly back to full health as Boston prepares to begin its Grapefruit League schedule Sunday. Before succumbing to the injury, the right-hander filled a varied role for the Boston pitching staff, working as starter, bulk reliever and a more traditional reliever across his 11 appearances. He wasn't particularly effective in any capacity, however, posting a 5.61 ERA and 1.75 WHIP in 25.2 innings.

Allows five runs in loss Brewer (0-3) allowed five runs on eight hits and two walks over four innings Monday, striking out four and taking the loss against Atlanta.

Impact Brewer had allowed just one run through three innings before allowing a solo blast to Adam Duvall in the fourth. Things got out of hand in the fifth when the 27-year-old allowed the first three batters to reach base. He was yanked from the game but was charged with those three runs on Austin Riley's bases-clearing triple. Brewer will carry a 5.61 ERA into a home start against Toronto this weekend.

Less success second time out Brewer (0-2) picked up the loss as the fill-in starter against the Blue Jays on Wednesday. He allowed four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over 3.2 innings.

Impact Brewer is like an opener-plus for Boston, having thrown 7.2 innings in his two appearances at the start of games. He did not enjoy as much success the second time out, surrendering three home runs to the Blue Jays after pitching four scoreless against the Orioles last Friday. He lines up next to pitch Monday at home against the Braves.

Starting Wednesday Brewer will serve as the opener Wednesday against the Blue Jays, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Brewer was initially scheduled to open for Darwinzon Hernandez on Thursday, but the duo will be pushed up after Nathan Eovaldi (calf) had his start pushed back to Saturday. Brewer was effective in his last appearance as an opener, tossing four scoreless innings while allowing three hits and two walks. He struck out two during that outing.

Effective as opener Brewer started Friday's game as the team's opener and lasted four innings while allowing no runs on three hits, two walks and two strikeouts. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Brewer had just appeared out of the bullpen Wednesday so it came as a bit of a surprise that the Red Sox chose to go with him to start Friday's contest. It was just the second start of his major league career but Brewer was able to work through four innings on 71 pitches before being piggybacked by Darwinzon Hernandez. Given his success Friday, Brewer should receive another opportunity as an opener unless the Red Sox need to use him out of the bullpen in the coming days.
