Boston moved Sale up in the rotation a day to give Drew Pomeranz an extra days' rest after his first start off the disabled list. Sale struck out a season-high 10 vs. the A’s on Saturday, but his outing was overshadowed by Sean Manaea's no-hitter.

The lefty will try to get in a better rhythm than he was in during his first start back from the disabled list, when he gave up five hits and three runs over 3 2/3 innings against Oakland while throwing 88 pitches. Pomeranz did strike out seven.

The lefty was haunted by one misfire in his last start, and Oakland’s Khris Davis swatted it over the wall for a three-run homer that handed Boston a 4-1 loss. Price has tossed 14 scoreless innings in two starts vs. the Rays this year.

The case can be made that Porcello has been Boston’s best starter early in the season, as the righty has displayed his Cy Young form of two seasons ago. Porcello has four walks and 32 strikeouts while holding opponents to a .189 batting average.
