Brian Johnson Pulled From AAA Start Due To Injury
When word came down earlier today that Brian Johnson was scratched from his PawSox start, everyone assumed he was headed to Fenway to sub for the DL'd David Price. Wrong, Clapper Breath! It turns out that Johnson has injury issues of his own—complaining of "shoulder soreness". Great! So the guy who was the logical rotation replacement for Price is probably down as well. This news has got to ramp up Dave Dombrowski's pursuit of another starter on the trade market. The deadline for deals in Monday at 4PM Eastern. Will this lunacy never end?
