Boston Red Sox starter Connelly Early

The Boston Red Sox lost lefty Connelly Early to the Injured List on Wednesday.

Boston announced that Early is landing on the 15-day Injured List due to left elbow inflammation. On Wednesday, Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy shared that Early was feeling a bit better on Wednesday, but Boston didn't want to risk him with the All-Star break coming.

“Yeah, he comes out of the game. There's soreness,” Tracy said, as transcribed by MLB.com's Ian Browne. “He's feeling better today but it's still a little sore. So with one more start remaining prior to the All-Star break -- it’s not just the start right, it's like, [are we really] going to have this guy go out in two days and throw a side? That's not something we're going to do with that kid.

“Connelly will tell you that he fought to not have it happen. But between that and having to use as much bullpen as we did and some of the moves we had to make to make sure we got arms, that's an easy decision to make sure you take that out of his hands and do right by him."

The injury bug just won't stop biting Boston.
