Kaleb Ort Injury News & Updates
Dec 1, 2023
Claimed by Miami
Miami claimed Ort (elbow) off waivers from the Mariners on Friday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort gave up 19 runs -- 16 earned -- over 23 major-league innings this past season, but he has always excelled in the minors and could perhaps find a spot in the Marlins' Opening Day bullpen if his health cooperates. The 31-year-old battled elbow trouble down the stretch in 2023.
Oct 13, 2023
Claimed by Mariners
The Mariners claimed Ort (elbow) off waivers from Boston on Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort struggled to the tune of a 6.26 ERA and 1.57 WHIP through 23 innings in the majors in 2023, and his season was cut short by an elbow injury in early July. The 31-year-old righty likely won't have a significant role in the Mariners' bullpen.
Oct 11, 2023
Placed on outright waivers
Ort (elbow) was placed on outright waivers Wednesday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort struggled to a 6.26 ERA over 23 innings for the Red Sox this season and finished the year on the injured list because of nagging elbow inflammation. The 31-year-old right-hander holds a career 6.27 ERA in 47 total major-league appearances and seems likely to pass through waivers unclaimed.
Sep 18, 2023
Starts up rehab assignment
Ort (elbow) began a rehab assignment Saturday with Triple-A Worcester, striking out one batter over a perfect inning of relief.
ANALYSIS
Ort has resided on the injured list since July 7 with right elbow inflammation, but he looks like he'll have a chance to rejoin the Boston bullpen before the regular season comes to a close. Prior to being shut down with the injury, Ort posted a 6.26 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 23 innings. If reinstated, Ort will likely be relegated to low-leverage work out of the bullpen.
Jul 26, 2023
Moved to 60-day IL
The Red Sox transferred Ort (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Ort was initially placed on the injured list July 7 due to right elbow inflammation, and he'll now remain out through the beginning of September. His transfer clears a 40-man spot for Mauricio Llovera, who was acquired in a trade with San Francisco on Wednesday.
Jul 7, 2023
Placed on injured list
The Red Sox placed Ort on the 15-day injured list Friday with an undisclosed injury, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear what Ort's injury is, but his placement on the IL frees up a spot for James Paxton to return from paternity leave. Ort holds a 6.26 ERA and 1.57 WHIP through 23 innings this season and will be eligible to return July 22.
Jun 27, 2023
Likely to serve as opener Wednesday
Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters after Tuesday's loss to the Marlins that Ort will likely be the opener for Wednesday's game versus Miami, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort worked as the opener June 19 for the Red Sox, and he went 2.1 innings against the Yankees while allowing two runs in the first game of a doubleheader. The right-hander will likely get a chance to go through the Miami lineup one time before giving way to the rest of the Boston bullpen, and he won't pitch deep enough to qualify for a win.
Jun 19, 2023
Exits in third as opener
Ort allowed two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out four over 2.1 innings as the opener in Boston's 6-2 win over the Yankees in the first game of Sunday's doubleheader.
ANALYSIS
Ort allowed a two-run home run in the first inning then settled down managed to give the Red Sox seven outs on 32 pitches. The reliever was called up to open Sunday's matinee after Saturday's game was rained out. He was promoted after Boston placed Tanner Houck (face) on the 15-day injured list, but it's unclear if Ort will remain in Boston.
Jun 18, 2023
Promoted, opening Game 1
Ort was recalled from Triple-A Worcester and will start Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Yankees, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
The 31-year-old was sent to Worcester in early June but will rejoin the big club Sunday with Tanner Houck (face) landing on the injured list. Ort hasn't covered more than two frames in any outings this year, so he'll likely exit after working an inning or two in Sunday's matinee. Nick Pivetta could follow as Boston's primary pitcher.
Jun 5, 2023
Sent to Triple-A
Ort was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort tossed a scoreless inning Monday against the Rays and will now head to the minors to make room for Chris Murphy. Ort owns a 5.87 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with a 16:7 K:BB over 15.1 frames so far this season.
Jun 4, 2023
Recalled from Triple-A
Boston recalled Ort from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort will give the Red Sox a fresh arm in the bullpen, with Ryan Sherriff heading to Triple-A in the corresponding transaction. In his 12 appearances with Boston thus far, Ort has struggled with a 7.30 ERA and 1.78 WHIP over 12.1 innings.
May 6, 2023
Sent to Triple-A
Ort was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
He was recalled Friday and didn't get into a game before being sent back to the minors. Zack Littell, who was acquired from Texas, takes Ort's spot in the bullpen.
May 5, 2023
Back in majors
Ort was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort will rejoin the Red Sox's bullpen as a result of Kutter Crawford (hamstring) landing on the 15-day injured list Friday. Ort has struggled in 12 major-league appearances this season, holding a 7.30 ERA and 1.78 WHIP across 12.1 frames.
Apr 29, 2023
Optioned to Triple-A
Boston optioned Ort to Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort has struggled to a 7.30 ERA over 12.1 innings with a 12:6 K:BB over 12 appearances. The right-hander will move down to Triple-A to make room for Chris Martin (shoulder) with Martin coming off the injured list for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Apr 6, 2023
Faulty support
Ort allowed two runs on two hits while striking out one over one inning in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Pittsburgh.
ANALYSIS
Ort was partially victimized by shoddy fielding. He allowed a leadoff double to Jason Delay, who eventually scored on a sacrifice fly that would have happened without the fielding miscues. In between, there was a poor decision by first baseman Tristan Casas, and another one by outfielder Masataka Yoshida which was compounded by third baseman Rafael Devers failing to cut off a misguided throw to plate. Ort's allowed four runs over five innings for a 7.20 ERA, which is an improvement on his spring ERA of 9.58.
Mar 25, 2023
Underwhelming spring
Ort has allowed eight runs on 13 hits and seven walks while striking out seven over 8.1 spring innings.
ANALYSIS
The Red Sox have stuck by Ort, keeping him on the 40-man roster over winter while jettisoning other pieces. The hard-throwing right-hander could be in jeopardy of being designated for assignment, which would open up a spot for Raimel Tapia or Jorge Alfaro, two non-roster invitees that have raked this spring and have opt-outs.
Oct 1, 2022
Activated Saturday
Ort (personal) was reinstated from the restricted list Saturday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort was unavailable for Friday's series opener in Toronto due to his vaccination status, but he'll rejoin Boston's bullpen now that Canada no longer has a vaccine requirement for visitors. Over his last five appearances, the right-hander has posted a 9.00 ERA and 2.00 WHIP in four innings.
Sep 30, 2022
Placed on restricted list
Ort was placed on the restricted list Friday.
ANALYSIS
Ort remains unvaccinated and will be unavailable for Friday's matchup in Toronto. However, he'll be eligible to rejoin the Red Sox as early as Saturday since Canada's vaccination requirement ends at the beginning of October. Jarren Duran was recalled to take Ort's spot on the active roster.
Sep 30, 2022
Earns first career save
Ort allowed one hit and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Thursday against Baltimore.
ANALYSIS
Ort successfully worked around a two-out single to maintain a two-run lead and tally his first career save. He's had a few stints with the Red Sox this season, with his most recent beginning Aug 29. In 12.1 innings since, Ort has maintained a 2.92 ERA with a 14:8 K:BB. It's unclear whether he will get more save chances prior to the close of the campaign, but it is worth noting that Matt Barnes was likely unavailable after throwing in Boston's previous two games.
Aug 28, 2022
Called up by Red Sox
Ort was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort was sent to the minors in mid-August but will rejoin the major-league bullpen as part of a move after Hirokazu Siwamura and Austin Davis were designated for assignment. Ort has posted a 9.00 ERA and 2.07 WHIP in 15 innings over 12 relief appearances in the big leagues this year.
Aug 13, 2022
Sent back to Worcester
Ort was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Ort was recalled Tuesday and made a pair of appearances in his latest stint with the team, neither of which went well. He allowed a combined four runs (two earned) in 2.2 innings of work and now has a 9.00 ERA in 15 innings on the season. Jeurys Familia will take his place in the bullpen.
Aug 9, 2022
Back in majors
Ort was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old was demoted to Worcester last week but will quickly rejoin the big-league club with Tanner Houck (back) headed to the injured list. Ort has appeared in 10 games for Boston this year and has a 9.49 ERA, 2.03 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB across 12.1 innings.
Aug 4, 2022
Sent to minors
Ort was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old has been up in the majors for the past month but will head to Triple-A with Matt Barnes (shoulder) returning from the 60-day IL. In 10 major-league appearances this season Ort has a 9.49 ERA, 2.03 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB across 12.1 innings.
Jul 9, 2022
Called up by Red Sox
Ort was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
Ort began the season in Worcester and picked up 15 saves while recording a 3.12 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in 34.2 innings over 33 appearances. He's made just one major-league appearance but will join Boston's bullpen after Michael Feliz was designated for assignment Friday. Although Ort pitched in high-leverage situations in the minors, it seems likely that he'll be used more in low-leverage situations for the big-league club.
Sep 14, 2021
Sent back to Worcester
Ort was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander joined the Red Sox last Friday, but did not make an appearance during his four games with the club. Martin Perez's (illness) return from the COVID-19 IL pushes him back to Worcester for the time being, but he could rejoin the big-league roster should Boston need to add an arm during the final three weeks of the regular season.
