US EditionRed Sox Place Reliever Liam Hendriks on IL
- The Boston Red Sox have moved relief pitcher Liam Hendriks to the injured list for 15 days, effective retroactively from May 28, due to inflammation in his right hip, just before their series began in Atlanta.
- Hendriks had been managing several hernia issues that began in early May, and the decision to place him on the injured list came amid his recent struggles on the mound and his openly expressed dissatisfaction with his bullpen role.
- The 36-year-old right-hander, a two-time All-Star with 116 career saves since 2007, made 14 appearances this season with a 6.59 ERA and 12 strikeouts in 13⅔ innings pitched.
- Nick Burdi, a 32-year-old right-handed journeyman with a 0.48 ERA and four saves in 15 Triple-A outings, was recalled to replace Hendriks and had already made two scoreless relief appearances for Boston this season.
- The roster change reflects an attempt to manage Hendriks' health and performance issues, while the length of his absence remains uncertain due to the nature of his injuries.
