Red Sox call up LHP Scott, option RHP Haley to Pawtucket

The Boston Red Sox called up left-handed reliever Robby Scott and optioned righty reliever Justin Haley to Triple-A Pawtucket on Tuesday, the team announced.

Scott, 28, posted a 3.24 ERA between 2016 and 2017 with the Red Sox, during his first two years in the majors, but he has yet to appear for them this season. He held lefties to a batting average of .141 during that span.

Scott has a 1.48 ERA in 24 appearances in Pawtucket this year, with 37 strikeouts and eight walks in 24 1/3 innings.

Haley, who turned 27 on Saturday, has pitched once for Boston this year, allowing no runs on two hits and a walk in two innings last Wednesday. He had a 6.00 ERA over 18 innings with the Minnesota Twins in 2017, his first year in the majors.

With Pawtucket, Haley has served as a starter, going 3-6 in 11 starts with a 3.18 ERA this season.
