John Schreiber Injury News & Updates
Sep 17, 2023
Blows save, let down by defense
Schreiber allowed one run on two hits over one inning and blew the save in Saturday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to Toronto.
ANALYSIS
For Boston's first save opportunity since closer Kenley Jansen (illness) landed on the COVID-19-related injured list, Red Sox manager Alex Cora brought in Schreiber to close. The right-hander should have survived with a save, but center fielder Ceddane Rafaela misplayed a Daulton Varsho liner, turning a potential game-ending out into a triple, which plated the tying run. Schreiber entered the game following Chris Martin, who is also in the mix for saves while Jansen works his way back.
Aug 5, 2023
Opening Saturday's contest
Schreiber will serve as the Red Sox's opening pitcher for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Chris Murphy, who last pitched Sunday against the Giants and covered 3.1 innings, will likely serve as a bulk reliever behind Schreiber, who will likely work only an inning or two. The Red Sox have now deployed Schreiber as an opener for two of his five appearances since he returned from the 60-day injured list last week.
Jul 25, 2023
Serving as opener in return
Schreiber (shoulder) was activated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber will serve as an opener Tuesday against Atlanta in his return to action after missing more than two months with a right shoulder strain. Nick Pivetta is expected to eat up the bulk of the innings in relief Tuesday.
Jul 18, 2023
Closing in on return
Schreiber (shoulder) is expected to be activated July 23 versus the Mets or July 25 against Atlanta, MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber has made four rehab appearances with Triple-A Worcester and is expected to pitch in back-to-back games July 19-20. That could be his final test before he rejoins the Red Sox' bullpen. Schreiber has been sidelined since mid-May with a right shoulder strain.
Jul 6, 2023
Beginning assignment over weekend
Schreiber (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment this weekend, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
If all goes according to plan, Schreiber will be back to begin Boston's upcoming series with the Mets on July 21. The 29-year-old reliever has been on the shelf since May 15 with a right shoulder strain, and he put up a 2.12 ERA and 1.29 WHIP through 17 innings before getting injured.
Jul 4, 2023
Closing in on rehab assignment
Schreiber (shoulder) could begin a rehab assignment this weekend, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber completed a live batting practice session with no issues Tuesday and appears poised to test things out in game action soon. The reliever could be back at the start of the second half after missing the last seven weeks with a shoulder injury.
Jun 27, 2023
Throws bullpen session
Schreiber (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber can't return from the 60-day injured list until after the All-Star break, but he should be ready around the time he's first eligible if all continues to go well with his throwing progression. He's been sidelined since mid-May because of a right teres major strain.
Jun 22, 2023
Shifted to 60-day IL
The Red Sox transferred Schreiber (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Thursday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber initially landed on the injured list May 16 with a right teres major sprain. His transfer ensures he will remain out until after the All-Star break and creates room for Tayler Scott, who was acquired in a trade with the Dodgers on Thursday.
Jun 13, 2023
Resumes throwing
Schreiber (shoulder) threw up to 75 feet on June 9, MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber will continue with a daily progression of flat-ground work until he is cleared to throw off a mound. He has been sidelined for nearly a month with a right teres major strain and looks to be at least a couple weeks away from a return.
May 16, 2023
Placed on 15-day IL
Schreiber was placed on the 15-day injured list by the Red Sox on Tuesday with a right lat strain, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber suffered the injury during an appearance Monday versus the Mariners. It's not clear how severe the strain is, but even in a best-case scenario it's often the type of injury which leads to longer than a minimum stay on the IL.
May 15, 2023
Dealing with lat injury
Schreiber left Monday's game against the Mariners with right lat tightness, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber is likely headed for further testing after being removed from Monday's contest. It's unclear whether he'll require a stint on the 15-day injured list.
May 15, 2023
Leaves game with trainer
Schreiber exited Monday's game against the Mariners due to an undisclosed injury, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
The nature of Schreiber's injury has yet to be revealed. He'll be considered day-to-day until more information comes to light.
Apr 19, 2023
Secures win Tuesday
Schreiber (1-0) got the win Tuesday against the Twins, allowing two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk over an inning of work.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber entered to pitch the 10th and loaded the bases after two batters. He allowed a run to score on a sacrifice fly before a second crossed the plate on a groundout to the shortstop. He was bailed out with a win after the Red Sox scored three in the bottom of the inning to walk off with a win. Schreiber had put together five scoreless outings before Tuesday and now sits at a 2.00 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and a 12:6 K:BB over nine innings.
Apr 6, 2023
Makes third appearance
Schreiber allowed one run on three hits and one walk over one inning in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Pirates.
ANALYSIS
Boston manager Alex Cora surprisingly removed starter Corey Kluber after five innings and 67 pitches, turning the game over to a bullpen that's been good early in the season. Schreiber allowed a couple of quick hits, before the Red Sox were caught off guard by a safety-squeeze bunt single that produced the first run off the reliever in three outings. Schreiber, who posted a 2.22 ERA last season, is a key middle-man in Boston's bullpen
Mar 12, 2023
Gets five outs Saturday
Schreiber struck out two over 1.2 scoreless innings in Saturday's spring game against the Twins.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber made a second consecutive scoreless appearance in which he was asked to face five batters. The right-hander was a key member of the bullpen in 2022 and will repeat that role this season, pitching anywhere in the final three innings of games.
Sep 20, 2022
Earns eighth save
Schreiber picked up the save Tuesday in Cincinnati, tossing two-thirds of an inning in a 5-3 win.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber entered the game in the ninth inning with one out and the bases loaded and Boston leading 5-2. He allowed a sacrifice fly and then induced a groundout to end the game. It was his eighth save of the season and third in September. He has not allowed an earned run in his last 12 outings, spanning 11 innings while allowing just seven baserunners. He continues to be in the mix for save chances for the Red Sox.
Sep 4, 2022
Records seventh save
Schreiber earned the save Sunday, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning in a 5-2 win over Texas.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber ran the count full on two of the three hitters he faced but closed the door on Texas without anyone reaching base. It was his seventh save on the season and third since Aug. 27. Boston may not have a set closer at the moment but Schreiber and his 2.11 ERA and 0.89 WHIP is certainly someone manager Alex Cora trusts in important situations. The 28-year-old will likely continue to get a fair amount of save opportunities over the final month.
Sep 4, 2022
Notches sixth save
Schreiber picked up the save Saturday against the Rangers. He struck out one over two-thirds of a scoreless inning.
ANALYSIS
Matt Barnes allowed singles to three of the first four batters he faced to open the ninth, prompting manager Alex Cora to make the switch to Schreiber, who got out of the jam on six pitches. Garrett Whitlock had previously worked the seventh and eighth innings. Schreiber has established himself as a key part of the late-inning mix in Boston (2.15 ERA) and could eventually separate himself from the pack.
Aug 28, 2022
Picks up save Saturday
Schreiber earned the save Saturday, allowing one walk and striking out one over a scoreless 1.1 innings in a 5-1 win over the Rays.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber put the kibosh on a Tampa Bay rally in the eighth, coming on with two runners on base and potential tying run on deck. It was his fifth save, four of which he's been tasked to get more than three outs. The Red Sox may have found something in the 28-year-old right-handed reliever, who has a 2.24 ERA and 0.88 WHIP over 52.1 innings. He's not expected to take over the closer's role, but Schreiber's in the mix along with Garret Whitlock, who will likely get most of the opportunities.
Aug 12, 2022
Notches two-inning save
Schreiber earned the save over the Orioles on Thursday, allowing one hit while striking out two batters over two scoreless innings.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber threw 17 of 25 pitches for strikes in the outing and allowed just one baserunner on an infield single with two outs in the ninth inning. The right-hander picked up his fourth save of the season and his first in over a month. With Tanner Houck (back) on the injured list, Schreiber and Garrett Whitlock figure to be Boston's primary ninth-inning options for the time being.
Jul 4, 2022
Records five-out save
Schreiber struck out one batter over 1.2 perfect innings and earned a save over the Rays on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber got some extra insurance from Boston's lineup in the eighth inning but he had no issue finishing off the 4-0 victory. He's riding a 14.2-inning scoreless streak since the start of June, lowering his season ERA to 0.66 with a 32:6 K:BB across 28 appearances. Monday's save was his third of the year and first since June 21.
Jun 22, 2022
Bags second save
Schreiber gave up a hit before recording the final out of Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Tigers to record his second save of the season.
ANALYSIS
Matt Strahm got the call to begin the ninth inning with Boston protecting a two-run lead, but after Jonathan Schoop led off the frame with a solo shot, the lefty wasn't given the chance to earn the save, getting the hook with two outs and right-handed hitters Javier Baez and Miguel Cabrera waiting. Schreiber has reeled off 10 straight scoreless appearances while establishing himself as a high-leverage option for the Red Sox, posting a 1.04 WHIP and 11:4 K:BB through 8.2 innings over that stretch with seven holds, but he still remains behind Tanner Houck and Strahm in the pecking order for saves.
Jun 9, 2022
Squelches rally
Schreiber struck out one over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn a hold in Wednesday's 1-0 win over the Angels.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was part of a resurgent Boston bullpen that limited to the Angels to one hit over the final four innings. This was Schreiber's fourth consecutive scoreless appearance following an outing in which he was part of one the team's epic relief meltdowns May 27. Other than that one outing, Schreiber has pitched well, posting a 1.08 ERA and 0.66 WHIP with 18 strikeouts and three walks over 16.2 innings.
May 28, 2022
Part of meltdown
Schreiber allowed two runs on one hit and one walk while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning in Friday's 12-8 loss to Baltimore.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber, who has pitched well out of the bullpen, was caught up in a meltdown. He and three other relievers combined to allow 10 runs on 10 hits and three walks over the final three innings, yet Schreiber was credited with a hold. The Red Sox have blown 12 of 20 save chances and the staff owns a 5.40 ERA in eighth inning or later.
May 11, 2022
Two-inning save Tuesday
Schreiber notched a save Tuesday after he pitched two perfect innings, striking out three batters in the 9-4 win over the Braves.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber entered the game in the bottom of the eighth inning when the Red Sox held a 6-4 lead, striking out one batter before returning the next inning and punching out two more on the way to his first career save. The 28-year-old has pitched 6.1 scoreless innings with a 0.47 WHIP and six strikeouts this season with the Red Sox while alternating between the big-leagues and Triple-A Worcester. His high level of production could lead to more opportunities out of the bullpen moving forward.
May 6, 2022
Rejoins big club
Schreiber was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old was demoted to Worcester last week but will return to Boston with Rich Hill (undisclosed) landing on the COVID-19 injured list. Schreiber has appeared in two big-league games this season and has delivered 2.1 scoreless innings.
Apr 29, 2022
Sent back to minors
Schreiber was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was promoted Monday and made two appearances during the four-game series in Toronto, and he allowed one hit with one strikeout and zero walks across 2.1 scoreless frames. The 28-year-old will head back to the Triple-A level for now but could rejoin Boston later in the season.
Apr 28, 2022
Scoreless inning in season debut
Schreiber pitched a scoreless eighth inning during Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Blue Jays. He struck out one and didn't record a walk.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber and Tyler Danish were both called up from Triple-A Worcester on Monday to replace Tanner Houck and Kutter Crawford, who are ineligible to compete in the Red Sox's current four-game series in Toronto due to their statuses as unvaccinated players. It was Schreiber's first MLB outing of the season and just his second since 2020.
Apr 25, 2022
Joins BoSox for Toronto series
The Red Sox called up Schreiber from Triple-A Worcester on Monday.
ANALYSIS
With pitchers Tanner Houck and Kutter Crawford ineligible to compete in the Red Sox's four-game series in Toronto that begins Monday due to their statuses as unvaccinated players, Schreiber and Tyler Danish were summoned from Worcester to provide reinforcement out of the bullpen. Once the series comes to an end, Schreiber will more than likely be outrighted off the 40-man roster and sent back to Triple-A.
Apr 4, 2022
Reassigned to minor-league camp
Schreiber was reassigned to minor-league camp Tuesday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber had solid results this spring, as he posted a 2.57 ERA and 0.86 WHIP in seven innings across four Grapefruit League appearances. However, he spent most of last year at Triple-A Worcester and will be forced to begin the 2022 campaign in the minors as well.
Sep 6, 2021
Optioned to Triple-A
Schreiber was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber had been with the team since Wednesday. He made his season debut Sunday against Cleveland, striking out five while allowing a run on four hits and a walk in a three-inning relief appearance. He'll head back to the minors as the Red Sox cycle in a new set of fresh arms.
Sep 6, 2021
Makes Boston debut
Schreiber allowed one run on four hits and one walk while striking out five over three relief innings in Sunday's 11-5 loss to Cleveland.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber entered for emergency starter Kutter Crawford, who was called up to start in place of Nick Pivetta (COVID-19 protocols). He pitched for the first time since Boston selected his contract last Wednesday. Crawford is now part of a pitching staff that's in flux due a COVID-19 outbreak.
Sep 1, 2021
Joins big-league club
Schreiber had his contract selected by the Red Sox on Wednesday, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was designated for assignment at the start of the season and will now receive another major-league opportunity. The right-hander had a 6.32 ERA in 15 outings for the Tigers last year and has a 3.10 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 57:21 K:BB over 58 innings for Triple-A Worcester in 2021.
Apr 2, 2021
Remains in organization
Schreiber was outrighted to the Red Sox's alternate training site Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old was designated for assignment by Boston earlier in the week and will remain in the organization after clearing waivers. Schreiber appeared in 15 games for the Tigers last season and had a6.32 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 14:4 K:BB over 15.2 innings.
Mar 30, 2021
Removed from 40-man roster
The Red Sox designated Schreiber for assignment Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Boston booted Schreiber from the 40-man roster to clear a spot for outfielder Franchy Cordero, who was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move. A waiver pickup from Pittsburgh in February, Schreiber didn't make a serious run at winning a spot in Boston's Opening Day bullpen this spring.
Feb 18, 2021
Claimed by Red Sox
Schreiber was claimed off waivers by the Red Sox on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was designated for assignment by Detroit on Friday, but he'll join the Red Sox to begin spring training. The right-hander made 15 relief appearances for the Tigers in 2020 and put up a 6.32 ERA and 1.47 WHIP over 15.2 innings. He should compete for a role as a middle reliever in Boston's bullpen ahead of the 2021 campaign.
Feb 12, 2021
Designated for assignment
Schreiber was designated for assignment by Detroit on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was the roster casualty to make room for new signing Nomar Mazara. With a 6.28 ERA in 28.2 major-league innings for his career, he doesn't seem likely to be claimed off waivers, though his 4.21 FIP indicates he may have potential as a decent middle reliever.
Sep 9, 2020
Optioned to alternate site
Schreiber was optioned off the Tigers' roster Wednesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber has been with the team all season but hasn't exactly impressed, posting a 6.08 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP in 13.1 innings. Those numbers look quite similar to his 6.23 ERA and 1.54 WHIP from his 13.0-inning debut last year.
Jul 23, 2020
Joining team for Opening Day
The Tigers recalled Schreiber from Triple-A Toledo on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
The transaction reverses one from spring training, when Schreiber was optioned to Toledo shortly before MLB suspended its season. Schreiber earned his way on to the 30-man Opening Day roster after faring well in summer camp, but he likely won't be tasked with handling many high-leverage innings out of the Detroit bullpen.
Jul 2, 2020
Part of 60-man pool
Schreiber, who will be a part of the Tigers' 60-man player pool this season, will compete for a back-end bullpen spot.
ANALYSIS
Schreiber was optioned to Triple-A Toledo back in March before play was suspended, and he was likely to bounce between the minors and the majors in a normal year. Now with the minor-league season canceled, the 26-year-old is among 30 pitchers jockeying for playing time in Detroit. If he pitches well in camp, he could snag a back-end bullpen spot, though his fantasy appeal is limited.
Mar 10, 2020
Cut from big-league camp
Schreiber was optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old righty logged 13 innings in the big-league bullpen last season, but tallied a 6.23 ERA. His strikeout rates have been promising, however, so Schreiber has a decent chance to pitch his way back to the majors this season.
