9/12/24 Former Dodgers Pitcher James Paxton Retiring After 2024 Season. The Los Angeles Dodgers' roster crunch began when they designated James Paxton for assignment on July 22, which came one day after he earned a win over the Boston Red Sox. The left-hander was ultimately traded to the Red Sox in exchange for prospect Moises Bolivar. It marked a reunion as Paxton spent the 2022-2023 seasons with the organization and made 19 starts for them last year after recovering from Tommy John surgery and additional setbacks. The 35-year-old's second stint with the Red Sox did not go so well as he made just three starts before suffering a right calf strain that forced him to the 60-day injured list.

8/23/24 44-Year-Old Recent Red Sox Pickup Set To Start In Triple-A On Friday. Heading into the all-important stretch run, the Boston Red Sox need any pitching help they can get. Amid a stretch of 27 games in 27 days, the Red Sox have a number of question marks surrounding the pitching staff. Once trade acquisition James Paxton went down with a calf injury on Aug. 11, the Red Sox knew they needed at least one more arm. No one truly knows what to expect from Hill, who has built himself up during the off-season to return to the big leagues, but has yet to throw a pitch in a game since October 2023.
