Brendan Rodgers’ career with the Boston Red Sox will be on pause for a while longer.

According to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com, Rodgers underwent right shoulder labral revision surgery, performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache. A veteran of seven seasons in Major League Baseball, Rodgers was back in Boston’s spring training came March 17 wearing a brace, according to Cotillo.
The Red Sox signed Rodgers, a veteran of seven MLB seasons, to a minor league contract on February 9 with an invitation to spring training.
On February 25, Rodgers left a game between the Red Sox and Minnesota Twins with right shoulder soreness. He underwent both an MRI and a CT scan before undergoing the surgery.
Although surgery was always the expectation, the complexity of the procedure was not known in full until now.
Last year with the Houston Astros, Rodgers slashed .191/.266/.278 in 43 games.
From 2019-24 with the Colorado Rockies, Rodgers hit .266/.316/.409 with 45 home runs and 197 RBIs. He won a Gold Glove Award in 2022 as the Rockies’ primary second baseman.
Rodgers effectively needed an injury to Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Andruw Monasterio, or Kristian Campbell — combined with a strong showing in camp — to claim a roster spot with the Red Sox. Now, his career is on hold.
