BOSTON — The Red Sox optioned right-handed reliever Isaiah Campbell to Triple-A Worcester after their 4-3 win over the Rays on Thursday, according to an industry source.
That clears a 26-man roster spot for righty Hunter Dobbins who is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list Friday to start against the Rays here at Fenway Park.
Boston also optioned infielder David Hamilton to Worcester Thursday, clearing a spot for All-Star third baseman Alex Bregman’s return from the 10-day injured list Friday.
Campbell’s stay with the big league team was brief. He was selected to the 40-man roster Tuesday and spent three games on the active roster.
He pitched Wednesday against the Colorado Rockies, allowing two runs on four hits in 2 innings.
Dobbins missed just 18 games on the IL with a right elbow strain. The 25-year-old rookie has gone 4-1 with a 4.10 ERA (59 ⅓ innings, 27 earned runs), 1.26 WHIP, 43 strikeouts and 16 walks in 12 games (10 starts).
