If you’re one of the few still waiting to see Tyler Thornburg pitch in a Red Sox uniform, I’d stop holding my breath. According to Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe, the righty is set to undergo surgery to treat thoracic outlet syndrome, which means that his season is likely over. Not that it really began in the first place.
For those paying attention to his embattled rehab process, it began to seem more and more likely that Thornburg would miss much more than the 60 days he was placed on the DL for.
