AP: Red Sox activate Buchholz, sent to Triple-A

The Boston Red Sox activated right-hander Clay Buchholz from the 15-day disabled list on Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Pawtucket, where he had been on a rehabilitation assignment.

Buchholz was placed on the disabled list May 14 with a torn nail on his right middle finger. He was 2-3 with a 5.53 ERA in eight starts with Boston and had a 4.50 ERA in two rehabilitation starts after being sent to Pawtucket on May 25.
...
Boston manager Terry Francona said he wanted the 23-year-old Buchholz to work on his command, fastball consistency and his arm slot while in Triple-A.

“There were some things that needed to be worked on and this is probably the best opportunity to do it,” Francona said.

Does this mean that Masterson jumps ahead of Clay in the depth chart, with a rotation slot open with Dice-K on the DL? If so that's nuts, even tho I like Masterson.

That makes two young players who are on my fantasy teams and were sent to Triple A after being activated from the DL (Andy LaRoche being the other). Troy Tulowitzki, look out!

With Omar Quintanilla homering today, Tulowitzki's days as the starting SS in Denver are numbered.
