Nathan Eovaldi Lands On 15-Day Injured List

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (back) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive June 9. The expectation was that Eovaldi would be able to make a start this week.

Week 10 MLB Injury News and Fantasy Baseball Injury Updates: Wander Franco, Starling Marte, Jack Flaherty, Jacob deGrom

We are now amazingly entering mid-June. Warmer weather has already shown what it can do with both the offensive categories (more home runs and runs scored) and injuries as well.

Garrett Whitlock Placed On Injured List

Boston Red Sox right-hander Garrett Whitlock (hip) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday. Whitlock is dealing with inflammation in his right hip.

Alex Verdugo Dealing With Knee Issue

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo (knee) is not in the starting lineup for his team's Friday night game against the Seattle Mariners.

Nathan Eovaldi Will Make Next Start

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Nathan Eovaldi (hip) will make his next scheduled start after leaving his last outing on Wednesday following five innings with right hip tightness.

Garrett Whitlock Dealing With An Injury

Boston Red Sox pitcher Garrett Whitlock (hip) has been dealing with an injury for recent weeks. This hip tightness could explain why Whitlock has been inconsistent throughout the season.

Chris Sale Could Return As Reliever

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale (ribs) could possibly return as a relief pitcher, according to pitching coach Dave Bush.
