The Red Sox have designated reliever Edward Mujica for assignment. Originally signed in 2013 for 2yrs/$9.5mil to be Boston's set up man, Mujica has recently found himself pitching in low level situations to the tune of a 4.61 ERA over 11 games. (Ian Browne - MLB.com)
Fantasy Impact:
Mujica was seen as an early season source of saves while filling in for closer Koji Uehara. However, since Uehara's return Mujica has been relegated to 5th and 6th inning work and has not been much help. The Red Sox figure to make a move before Friday's series opener in Toronto. If no acquisitions come down the pipe, expect an internal option like Matt Barnes to get the call.
