If the Red Sox were on the fence about signing a starting pitcher in free agency this winter, the latest news on the Steven Wright front probably swayed them. The team announced on Monday that the knuckleballer underwent arthroscopic surgery on his ailing knee and that he would be rehabbing to return in 2019.
Boston #RedSox RHP Steven Wright underwent a left knee arthroscopy and debridement today at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, NY. The surgery was performed by Dr. Riley Williams.
Wright will continue to rehab and prepare for a return to pitching in the 2019 season.
