Boston Red Sox Pitcher to Miss Next Start

The Boston Red Sox are trying to get back into the Wild Card race and need every win they can get. Yet, the odds are continuing to be stacked against their favor, as Nathan Eovaldi is set to miss his next start on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Eovaldi is the Red Sox's top starter, so his continued absence is certainly bad news for them. Yet, the soreness in his shoulder and neck is too much for him to play through, so he will have to miss out on another crucial start.

In 18 games this season, Eovaldi has a 5-3 record to go along with a 4.15 ERA. Here's to hoping that he has a speedy recovery from here.
