Will Jackie Bradley, Jr. Be Back With Sox Soon?

JBJ: Returning Soon?
With an impending decision on Shane Victorino's status, it seems likely that Jackie Bradley, Jr. will be back with the big club as soon as Thursday night's game in Toronto. The Red Sox have to decide quickly whether or not to put Victorino on the 15-day DL with nagging back problems. Mike Carp has done a nice fill-in job in left, and both Jonny Gomes and Daniel Nava could help. But this would give Bradley a far less pressured opportunity to show that what he did in Spring Training wasn't a fluke.
