Well, it’s the nightmare every Red Sox fan wasn’t hoping for. Ever since Boston Red Sox offseason signee Carson Smith experienced “forearm tightness” during Spring Training, people knew what was going to happen next. The injury that can ruin pitcher’s dreams. Tommy John surgery.
After today’s announcement that Smith will undergo Tommy John surgery, Red Sox Nation is beginning to wonder what the team will do with the bullpen they have now.
To be honest, it won’t be surprising if we see the Sox do absolutely nothing, since the 26-year old righty only appeared in 3 games so far in 2016.
