After reports yesterday that Daisuke Matsuzka will require Tommy John surgery the news for Rich Hill is not much better. According to Peter Abraham’s sourcesRich Hill has a serious injury and will require season ending surgery. He is seeking a second opinion, but it would be tough to see a completely different result.
This is disappointing news for someone off to a dominating start out of the pen and the only Lefty out of the pen. The Red Sox have now lost two left handers to injury including Franklin Morales and have only one option for left handed option in the pen. That is Felix Dounront who made his first appearance on May 30 in Triple-A since being on the DL. With no game today the Sox will probably wait till Friday to make the move.qui
