MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL: Sox’ Workman placed on DL
Former Bowie High School standout pitcher Brandon Workman is facing another setback in his hopeful return to the major leagues.
The Pawtucket PawSox placed Workman on the seven-day disabled list with a right elbow strain.
Workman was slated to work for the PawSox out of the bullpen this season, part of a permanent transition from a starter’s role to one as a reliever. According to Boston Red Sox team officials, the injury is not believed to be serious.
Workman will be seeking a second opinion on the injury, according to those team officials. Surgery is not expected.
Workman didn’t pitch in any of the PawSox games this weekend against Lehigh Valley, the Triple-A affiliate for the Philadelphia Phillies.
During the 2013 postseason, Workman made seven relief appearances without giving up an earned run as the Red Sox defeated the St. Louis Cardinals to win the World Series.
Workman came on strong late during spring training, and he’s considered valuable depth within the organization.
