Andrew Bailey Placed On DL; Breslow Activated

Headed To The DL
Even though it was kind of expected, now that Andrew Bailey has been placed on the DL with 'right biceps inflammation', the closer's job is firmly back in the hands of Joel Hanrahan. Bailey's stint is backdated, so he will be eligible to return next Tuesday—but his history of lingering injuries suggests the contrary. To fill Bailey's spot on the roster, the team activated lefty Craig Breslow from the DL. Breslow will give manager John Farrell another option besides Andrew Miller from the port side.
