Newsbreakers

September 21, 2009

Chris Woodward has been recalled by the Red Sox from Triple-A Pawtucket, according to the Boston Globe. The club placed hurler Junichi Tazawa (groin strain) on the 60-day DL as the adjoining move.

Our View:

Woodward is only batting .216 over 74 at-bats in the majors this season, and shouldn't see much action during his latest stint with the Sox.

September 15, 2009

Chris Woodward has been outrighted to the minors by the Red Sox to make room for hurler Daisuke Matsuzaka on the roster, according to TSN.

Our View:

The 33-year-old middle infielder holds a poor .216 average over 74 at-bats in the majors this season, and was viewed as expendable to the Sox.

September 1, 2009

Chris Woodward has been recalled by Boston from Triple-A Pawtucket, according to TSN.

Our View:

The 33-year-old middle infielder is a career .242 hitter in the majors. He does not look to see much action with the Sox, barring injuries.

August 19, 2009

Chris Woodward has cleared waivers, and been assigned to Triple-A Pawtucket.

Our View:

Woodward could be called back up to Boston if one of their middle infielders get hurt, but is hitting just .225 this season, and it would not be in anyone's best interest.

August 15, 2009

One week after being acquired by the Boston Red Sox, Chris Woodward has been designated for assignment.

Our View:

The 33-year-old Woodward went 0-for-4 for Boston, and probably doesn't have many options left.

August 7, 2009

The Boston Red Sox have acquired and activated infielder Chris Woodward from the Mariners, according to WEEI.com. Woodward was designated for assignment by Seattle on Tuesday.

Our View:

Woodward hit only .239 with no homers in 20 games with the M's this season, so the Red Sox must be getting desperate for players at this point. He doesn't figure to make much of an impact in Boston, as he will mostly just provide depth.

August 4, 2009

Chris Woodward has been designated for assignment by the Mariners, according to TSN. The club activated third baseman Adrian Beltre from the 15-day DL as the corresponding move.

Our View:

The 33-year-old infielder held a poor .239 average over 67 at-bats while providing depth with Beltre on the shelf. Woodward should continue to be ignored in fantasy leagues.

July 4, 2009

Chris Woodward went 2-for-3 on Saturday, and drove in the winning run in the ninth inning as the Mariners beat Boston 3-2 at Fenway Park.

Our View:

Woodward is filling in ably for the injured Adrian Beltre so far, but is not a fantasy option in any format.

June 18, 2009

Chris Woodward has been recalled by the Mariners to take the place of Jose Lopez, who was placed on the bereavement list, according to the Seattle Times. Woodward was hitting .299 in Triple-A this season.

Our View:

Lopez should be back in the next couple of days, so Woodward's stay is most likely going to be very short. He has no fantasy value, and it is highly unlikely there is a scenario where he would have any at some point this year.
