Chris Sale is eager to put last season’s nightmare behind him and move on to his bounce-back campaign. The Boston Red Sox haven’t seen their ace take the mound since August when he was shut down with a troubling case of elbow inflammation and many were worried that the ailment would spill into next season. Those concerns were mostly put to rest when Dr. James Andrews gave Sale the green light to begin throwing last month.
The lefty still has a long road ahead of him in his recovery but he appears to be back on track.
