No-decision against Houston Whitlock didn't factor into the decision in Monday's 6-3 win over the Astros, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks over five-plus innings. He struck out three.
Impact The right-hander kept Houston off the board for four frames before serving up a solo shot to Chas McCormick to lead off the fifth. Whitlock has yet to work more than five innings in any outing since moving into the rotation, but he's posted a 3.15 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 26:8 K:BB through 20 innings over his five starts.

Slated to start Monday Whitlock will start Monday's game against the Astros, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact Although Rich Hill (illness) is expected to return from the COVID-19 injured list this weekend, Whitlock will remain in the starting rotation with an additional day of rest prior to his next outing. While Whitlock initially lined up to start Sunday in Texas, he'll be pushed back to start Monday's series opener at home against the Astros. Following a strong start to the season, the right-hander has allowed five runs in eight innings over his last two outings, although he's struck out 14 during that time.

Ineffective versus Atlanta Whitlock tossed three innings, giving up three runs on four hits and four walks while striking out five in Tuesday's win over the Braves. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Whitlock didn't have full command of the strike zone Tuesday, walking a season-high four batters while throwing 48 of his 82 pitches for strikes. Marcell Ozuna ripped a sacrifice fly against him in the bottom of the third inning before Travis d'Arnaud launched a two-run homer later in the frame. The 25-year-old has been alternating between long relief and the starting rotation this season, drawing a start in each of his last three outings, surrendering five runs in 11 innings over that stretch. Whitlock still owns a 2.19 ERA and 0.93 WHIP with 34 strikeouts over 24.2 innings this year. It is yet to be seen if he will make another start in the rotation or if Rich Hill (illness) will return from the COVID-19 injured list ahead of his next turn in the rotation.

Continuing in rotation role Whitlock's role in the rotation remains safe for now with Rich Hill heading to the COVID-19 injured list, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
Impact After opening the year by allowing one run on four hits in 9.2 innings of relief work, Whitlock stepped into the rotation for a trio of successful starts. He's only averaged four innings across those starts, though he reached a season-high five in his latest outing Wednesday against the Angels. Whitlock's 1.25 ERA and 29:4 K:BB on the year will make it tough for Boston to send him back to the bullpen, though workload concerns could still cause such a move at some point given that he worked exclusively in relief last season.

Solid against Angels Whitlock pitched five innings, giving up two runs on two hits while striking out nine in Wednesday's loss to the Angels. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Whitlock held the Angels off the basepaths for 4.1 innings before surrendering a double to Jared Walsh. Just two batters later, Max Stassi launched a two-run homer, tying the game at 2-2. The five innings pitched and nine punchouts were both season-highs for Whitlock. The 25-year-old has been very effective this season, going 1-1 while posting a 1.25 ERA and 0.69 WHIP with 29 strikeouts over 21.2 frames.

Starting Wednesday Whitlock will start Wednesday's game against the Angels, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
Impact Whitlock has been dominant over six appearances (two starts) this season, posting a 0.54 ERA and 0.78 WHIP in 16.2 innings. The right-hander's start against the Blue Jays on Thursday happened since Tanner Houck was on the restricted list due to his vaccination status. However, Whitlock made enough of an impression to draw at least one more start, while Houck will continue to pitch out of the bullpen. Manager Alex Cora didn't commit to Whitlock as a long-term starter and instead said that his role will be determined one turn at a time.

Records loss in pitching duel Whitlock (1-1) recorded the loss, allowing four hits, a run and two walks while striking out two over three innings in Thursday's 1-0 loss to the Blue Jays.
Impact The loss can't be blamed on Whitlock, as the game's only run was unearned thanks to an error by Christian Arroyo that allowed Lourdes Gurriel to advance. His subsequent walk to Raimel Tapia moved Gurriel into scoring position. and Kirk's two-out single brought in the run. The Red Sox's bats are ice-cold currently, so although the team's bullpen aptly kept the Blue Jays in check while utilizing five pitchers after Whitlock, run support has been hard to come by recently. Whitlock earned the spot start due to Tanner Houck's (personal) vaccination status, which prohibits him from playing in Canada.
