Kyle Harrison News: Traded to Boston

The Red Sox acquired Harrison, right-hander Jordan Hicks (toe), right-hander Jose Bello and outfielder James Tibbs from the Giants on Sunday in exchange for Rafael Devers, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Harrison had been slated to start for the Giants in Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers, but he was scratched just minutes before the game after the trade was completed. The left-hander had compiled a 4.56 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 25 strikeouts over 23.2 innings in eight appearances (four starts) for San Francisco. The Red Sox are likely to have Harrison continue his development as a starter, but the team may not have an immediate opening for the 23-year-old in the big-league rotation. Harrison has three minor-league options remaining and could be sent to Triple-A Worcester to continue making regular starts.
