After MRI, Drew Pomeranz cleared to join Red Sox in St. Louis

Drew Pomeranz did not expect anything serious, and an MRI seems to have confirmed his intuition.

The test at Massachusetts General Hospital today showed no changes compared to previous images, the Red Sox announced, and Pomeranz will join the team in St. Louis to resume baseball activities.

“At this point, I should be fine for my next start,” Pomeranz said on Sunday. “We'll see how the next few days unfold, but I don't think it's going to be too big of an issue that keeps me out of any games.”

Warming up for yesterday's fourth inning, Pomeranz felt tightness in his left triceps and left after pitching just three innings.
