2026 Fantasy Outlook
Bennett pitched well during the 2025 season in his first year back since Tommy John surgery, posting a 2.56 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with 33 strikeouts across 45.2 innings at Double-A. He's unlikely to push for an Opening Day roster spot, having made nine starts at Double-A and none at Triple-A, but he could be an option in the rotation or bullpen later in the season. He's a lefty with good command and a good changeup, but he didn't miss many bats at the Double-A level last season, posting just a 17.9 percent strikeout rate. Read Past Outlooks

From Preseason
Signed a one-year contract with the Red Sox in March of 2026.
Bound for minor-league camp
PBoston Red Sox  AA
March 9, 2026
The Red Sox optioned Bennett to minor-league camp Monday.
Analysis
Bennett had drawn positive buzz during his first spring training with the Red Sox after coming over in a trade with the Nationals over the winter, but the 25-year-old lefty never appeared likely to break camp with the big club. After Bennett turned in a 2.56 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 33:11 K:BB in 45.2 innings at Double-A Harrisburg upon being promoted following the All-Star break, the Red Sox could have him open the upcoming season in the Triple-A Worcester rotation.
