Bailey Horn Claimed by Tigers from Red Sox

The Boston Red Sox have lost left-handed pitcher Bailey Horn to the Detroit Tigers after he was claimed off waivers. Horn, who joined the Red Sox in April via a trade with the Chicago White Sox, struggled at the MLB level with a 6.50 ERA and 1.778 WHIP in 18 appearances. Despite these challenges, he performed better in Triple-A, boasting a 2.15 ERA. Alongside Horn's departure, the Red Sox have non-tendered relievers Isaiah Campbell and Bryan Mata, making them free agents, as part of roster adjustments ahead of the 2025 MLB season. The moves come as the Red Sox aim to bolster their pitching options, with left-handed pitching not being a current organizational strength. The club is expected to explore additional left-handed relief options to strengthen their bullpen for the upcoming season.
