Mookie Betts Placed on Disabled List with Left Abdominal Strain
7 years agoBoston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts has been placed on the disabled list with a left abdominal strain retroactive to May 29. Betts is eligible to come off the DL Friday, June 8 so it will not be a full 10 days from here on out if he's ready to play when eligible. The Red Sox are making sure Betts is fully healthy rather than risking any greater injury. Betts is slashing .359/.437/.750 with 17 home runs, 13 stolen bases, 37 RBI, and 52 runs in 48 games this season. Once he returns, Betts should be able to return to the MVP-level of play he opened the first two months of the season with.
