The Boston Red Sox made another arm swap before they started a three-game series against the Houston Astros on Monday.
Weissert last pitched for Boston on July 28 against the New York Yankees before he was demoted. The right-hander, who the Red Sox acquired from the Yankees last offseason, struggled as the summer rolled.
Upon the move to Worcester, Weissert held a 1.50 ERA in four Triple-A outings prior to Monday's recall. He joins the Red Sox bullpen at a critical time as Boston trails the Kansas City Royals by 3 1/2 games for the final playoff spot in the American League.
Boston faced the Astros at Fenway Park earlier this month and Houston earned a three-game sweep.
