With spring training right around the corner, the Red Sox have suffered another significant blow to the heart of their lineup.
The Red Sox announced in a team release on Tuesday that Trevor Story underwent elbow surgery on Monday — with the Sox infielder going under the knife for a “successful internal bracing procedure of the right ulnar collateral ligament.”
While the Red Sox did not release a timeline on Story’s recovery, ESPN’s Jeff Passan did note that players who have undergone similar UCL procedures generally had a four- to six-month timeline for a return to game action.
