With Sonny Gray on the injured list, Boston is in need of starting pitching. If Tolle keeps performing like this, he won\u2019t be giving up his spot quickly.<\/p>\n<p>While his first run in the majors came with flashes of brilliance, his most recent start was clearly he best. Over his seven MLB appearances in 2025, Tolle held a 6.06 ERA and a 19\/8 K\/BB ratio. He seemed to work out the kinks to begin 2026 in Triple-A though. Before his call up, the left-hander held a 3.00 ERA and a 19\/4 K\/BB ratio over three starts. Now, he is trying to put it all together at the major league level.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Red-Sox-pitcher-Payton-Tolle-70-throws.jpg\" alt=\"Red Sox news: Payton Tolle reflects on career-worst start: 'Can't feel  sorry for myself'\" \/><\/p>\n<p>His Red Sox teammates must follow suit, against the Yankees or any competition.
