The Red Sox recalled Uwasawa from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Uwasawa has made a trio of five-inning starts for Worcester since he was optioned to the affiliate after the Red Sox acquired him from the Rays shortly before Opening Day, but the Japanese right-hander looks like he'll be making his MLB debut as a member of Boston's bullpen. He'll tentatively slot in as a multi-inning relief option, but with three members of the Boston rotation currently on the injured list, Uwasawa could eventually get a chance to make some starts if depth arms such as Cooper Criswell, Josh Winckowski and Chase Anderson aren't able to get the job done as fill-ins in the rotation.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
MLB debut might come soon
Manager Alex Cora mentioned Uwasawa as a potential rotation option after Garrett Whitlock was placed on the injured list Wednesday with an oblique injury, reports Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican.
ANALYSIS
The skipper said in early April that Uwasawa needed to adjust to the pitch clock and work on his splitter at Triple-A Worcester, but since then Boston's rotation injuries have mounted. The Japanese right-hander has underwhelmed in his first two starts at Triple-A with seven runs allowed across 10 innings, but he's on the shortlist as a starting option since he's already on the 40-man roster.
