The Boston Globe’s Tim Healey wrote on X: “Garrett Whitlock is dealing with elbow inflammation and was unavailable tonight, Chad Tracy said. He has been dealing with it off and on, per Tracy.”

On the bright side, Whitlock doesn’t believe the inflammation will lead to an extended IL stint.

Healey wrote on X: “Garrett Whitlock said his elbow inflammation has been “building” for two or three weeks and he has minimal concern that “drastic measures” will be necessary.”

MassLive.com’s Chris Cotillo wrote on X: “Whitlock said he doesn’t think it’s anything structural but the pain has been “building” for a couple weeks. It hit a point of at least some concern last night when he was warming up.”
