Guerrero, 24, was 0-1 with a 4.15 ERA in 13 relief outings this season and has a 2.63 ERA in 22 career outings with Boston over the past two years.
Slaten, 27, was 1-4 with a 3.47 ERA in 24 relief appearances before going on the IL on June 1. In 68 relief appearances over two seasons with the Red Sox he is 7-6 with a 3.09 ERA.
