Boston Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale’s inflammation in his pitching elbow is just that, ESPN’s Jeff Passan reported Monday afternoon.
The Red Sox later confirmed the diagnosis in a statement and noted that Sale was treated with a platelet-rich plasma injection. “Dr. Andrews also recommended a period of shutdown from throwing. Sale will be re-evaluated in six weeks by Dr. Andrews,” said Boston’s president of baseball operations, Dave Dombrowski.
The 39-year-old Cruz missed nine games after sustaining a left wrist strain on Aug. 8 in a loss to the Indians. Atlanta made the move after learning outfielder Ender Inciarte will likely miss more than a month due to the hamstring injury he suffered on Friday. Inciarte is batting .246 with five homers and 24 RBIs in 65 games.
The 5-foot-10 left-hander from Waco, Texas, spent a decade in the major leagues with four teams, compiling a 67-99 record with a 3.98 ERA in 303 appearances .
