ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The Red Sox have a new starting pitcher arriving on
Monday, when left-hander Andrew Miller is promoted from Pawtucket to face the
San Diego Padres. The Sox also have two off-days in a five-day span, the
first next Wednesday, the other the following Monday.
The confluence of those circumstances may allow Clay Buchholz to fulfill his
wish not to go on the disabled list because of continuing back issues, which
cropped up again Thursday and limited him to just five innings in a 4-2 win
over the Rays.
At the same time, manager Terry Francona said he does not want Buchholz
dealing with back issues for the balance of the season, and that he will be
examined by the team's medical staff when the team returns home Friday.
"We certainly don't want him to go through the rest of the year like this,''
Francona said. "Not the way he's pitching, but having this thing linger.
There's some days off coming up. We'll re-evaluate it."
Buchholz allowed just two hits and a run in five innings, and had thrown only
81 pitches when he was lifted by Francona for pitcher Alfredo Aceves. His
discomfort was not apparent while he was on the mound, but he said it cropped
up early, especially during waits in the dugout in the first two innings
while Tampa Bay starter David Price struggled. He decided he didn't want to
put extra stress on the back if he could avoid it.
"The way we're playing right now,'' he said, "nobody wants to go on the DL,
That was my first thought. Try to get through five innings with it, then give
it to the bullpen.''
Buchholz said the discomfort feels like a pulled muscle.
"Every time I tried to get out and extend a little bit more with just about
every pitch, that's when I felt it," he said. "The last inning, I felt like I
was compensating in my delivery for it. I think that's how you're going to
get yourself hurt in other places."
Buchholz resisted the suggestion that there was logic that he shut it down
until he is fully recovered.
"Not for me,'' he said. "I want to go out there and pitch. I don't want to
take two weeks off for anything. Get back in the training room with the
staff, help it any way they can. Check it out tomorrow, go from there.''
美國時間下個禮拜一
Andrew Miller被拉上來對上教士
在今天的比賽Buchholz因為背部肌肉緊繃
所以投完五局僅僅81球就下場休息
但在未來一個多禮拜內有兩次移動日之下
Buchholz不想要進DL 粉柯南也不希望他進去
明天回波士頓會再進行檢查
---------------------------------------
然後羅莉很可能進DL
起因於5/27跟CC相撞造成的左肩疼痛
今天在第一個打席就被換下場
---------------------------------------
然後因為Bruins贏得了冠軍
所以美國時間禮拜六 與釀酒人的第二場比賽
從原定的1:10延後到7:10開打
