Fantasy Analysis
The Red Sox chose to call up a middle infielder for a reliever, though Tazawa wasn't so bad while up with Boston. He made five appearances and had not allowed a run on five hits over 6 1/3 innings with four strikeouts and one save. Still, back in the minors, Tazawa has low-end Fantasy value.
