The Boston Red Sox are considering the implementation of a six-man starting rotation to manage the workload of their pitchers, particularly in light of the team's busy schedule and the need to keep their key players healthy and effective.

Manager Alex Cora has discussed this idea, noting that while it's not set in stone, it could be beneficial given the current health and performance considerations of the pitching staff. The potential shift to a six-man rotation comes amidst discussions on how to best utilize their roster, including considerations of sending some pitchers to the minors or using them in relief roles.
