Red Sox infielder Marco Hernandez will miss spring training after setback

Spring training for the Boston Red Sox was barely underway before it abruptly came to an end for infielder Marco Hernandez.

The 25-year old was sent back to Boston this week after reporting soreness in his surgically repaired left shoulder. Hernandez underwent a procedure to remove pins that had been inserted to stabilize the shoulder during his season-ending surgery last May.

Alex Cora said Marco Hernandez went back to Boston because his surgically repaired left shoulder was bothering him. They have now removed some "hardware" from the area that was put in during surgery.
