After their 10-game winning streak going into the All-Star break, the Boston Red Sox have all but confirmed they'll be buyers at the trade deadline. Unfortunately, they also got some season-altering news in the final hours before the break.
Hunter Dobbins exited Boston's July 11 game early after a strange play at first base. The Red Sox sent the pitcher for scans and later learned that he tore his ACL, officially ending his rookie season early.
Dobbins had been a key depth pitching option for the Red Sox while both Tanner Houck and Richard Fitts were on the injured list.
