The Sox salvaged a 2-2 series split with the Rays after the 5-2 victory on Monday. David Ortiz was lost for at least 2 weeks with a knee injury, but Kevin Youkilis' bat seems to have woken up a bit with a 2-run homer in the series finale. Next up is a short 2-game set against Josh Hamilton and the Rangers before a day off to prepare for the first meeting with the Yankees on the new season.

Injury bug hits Red Sox early.

Posted on March 17, 2012 at 09:40 PM.

(0)

In the home opening loss to Tampa Bay, last year's Silver Slugger winner at DH, David Ortiz, suffered a sprained right knee that will keep him out of action for at least a couple weeks. David injured the knee while sliding into home, where he was called out. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list and his roster spot was filled by RF Ryan Sweeney, called up from AAA Pawtucket. We'll keep an eye on David's rehab process.

Well, the bats have yet to wake up after dropping two out of three to the division rival Toronto Blue Jays. After a home run against Detroit, Kevin Youkilis is mired in a slump. In the lone victory against the Blue Jays, the Sox only managed to score two runs. Maybe a trip home to Fenway will awaken the lumber. Next up: another division rival in Tampa Bay.

Well, it wasn't easy, but we were able to take 2 out of 3 from the Tigers. Ace Josh Beckett got shellacked, but the sencond and third starters were able to bring us back to take the remaining games of the opening series. On to Toronto, then home to Fenway.
