The Boston Red Sox have placed relief pitcher Liam Hendriks on the 15-day injured list due to inflammation in his right hip. This move is retroactive to Wednesday, as the team announced. In his 14 appearances this season, Hendriks has struggled with a 6.59 ERA and 12 strikeouts in 13.2 innings. Meanwhile, the Red Sox recalled right-hander Nick Burdi from Triple-A Worcester. Burdi has been impressive, boasting a 0.48 ERA with four saves in 15 outings at Worcester. Hendriks, a seasoned closer with 116 career saves across six teams, revealed he faced death threats on social media after a recent loss, exacerbating the burden of his past battle with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
