Chris Sale is expected to be a starter once activated from the IL. There was once talk during Sale's recovery that the Red Sox would initially bring him back in the bullpen. (Chris Cotillo on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Manager Alex Cora seemed pretty sure in his comments that they view Sale as a starter. Bringing Sale back in the bullpen was initially a way to get him back with the team sooner, but it looks like the Sox would rather wait and bring him back once he's ready to start games. Sale will likely begin a rehab assignment soon after a successful live BP session this week.
