Boston Red Sox veteran John Smoltz, still recovering from June shoulder surgery, will avoid batting practice (again) this Thursday.
In fact, he’ll likely sit out of all baseball-related activities for the next week or so, according to manager Terry Francona.
The 41-year-old righty, who signed with the Sox (14-7) in January after 20 seasons with the Atlanta Braves—we still don’t get that—is scheduled to rejoin the team on May 6 when they return home from a nine-game road trip. Maybe he’ll even pitch for them someday.
Speaking of Boston, here’s an awesome post from 27 Pitches on the douchery of Bill Simmons. Who doesn’t love Mad Libs?
