Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia is heading back to the disabled list with inflammation in his surgically repaired left knee.
If it seems like only yesterday that we were talking about Pedroia returning from injury, you aren’t far off. He spent the minimum 10 days on the DL with the same knee issue, returning to play on August 8 in Tampa Bay.
Pedroia went 0-for-4 with a walk in that game, serving as the DH. He would sit out the next game, which at the time we thought was meant to protect him against playing on the artificial turf at Tropicana Field.
