Boston Red Sox left-hander David Price underwent an MRI on his pitching elbow Thursday and could miss his scheduled Friday start, a source told ESPN's Buster Olney.

The issue is reportedly similar to the injury that sidelined Price for the first two months of the season. The Boston Globe first reported that Price could miss Friday's start.

The Red Sox, who hold a half-game lead over the New York Yankees in the American League East, are returning to Fenway Park to start a three-game series against the red-hot Kansas City Royals.
