Happy Wednesday. The Red Sox seem to have dodged a bullet with Garrett Whitlock:
Garrett Whitlock said he was removed for precautionary reasons. He felt it during the third inning and doesn’t see it as something that will hold him back from his next start

Better to not let something linger on given the many question marks about who would fill those innings if it got worse during the night.
The Sox fell to 9-9 and are back in last place in the AL East.
