Red Sox place left-handed pitcher Brian Johnson on disabled list

The Boston Red Sox announced what I do believe just about everyone suspected and that is 26-year-old left-hander Brian Johnson has been placed on the ten-day disabled list with a sore shoulder classified as a shoulder impingement. There is no time table yet issued regarding Johnson’s recovery.

Johnson lasted only 2 2/3 innings in his last start after reporting some discomfort in warm up activities. Johnson was expected to take an active role in the rotation with the loss of Eduardo Rodriguez. This season the former number one draft pick is 2-0 with a 4.
