Rest-of-Season Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Watson is unlikely to be anything more than a low-leverage reliever and will have to be returned to the Giants if he doesn't stick on the active roster all season, as he was a Rule 5 pick by the A's who was then traded to Boston. He's a 28-year-old with no big-league experience, though his 21.1 K-BB% last season at the Triple-A level means he has a chance to stick around. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Red Sox in March of 2026.
Memorable MLB debut
Watson allowed three walks while striking out one over 2.1 hitless and scoreless innings in Saturday's 6-5 extra-innings loss to Cincinnati.
Analysis
Watson, a Rule 5 pick, made his major-league debut in the sixth inning in a not so low-leverage situation. The Red Sox were trailing by two runs when the rookie entered with two outs and two runners on. After walking the first batter he faced, Watson twice thought he'd struck out Eugenio Suarez on called third strikes and walked off the mound, but both calls were challenged and overturned. The right-hander eventually gathered himself and got the slugger to ground out to second base before working scoreless seventh and eighth innings. Despite the tension surrounding Saturday's appearance, Watson is expected to remain in a low-leverage role.
