On Wednesday, as we know, the Red Sox had to remove Dustin Pedroia from the game in New York after just an inning and a half after he felt something strange in is knee. As we discussed on Thursday, the expectation was that the team would get some sort of reinforcements at second base prior to Friday’s series opener in Tampa Bay. Before we found out about anything to do with the rest of the roster, we did get some good news on the veteran. He went to see a doctor in New York yesterday, and according to a report from Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe, he did not sustain another major injury to the knee.
