Clay Buchholz Has No Structural Damage in Neck or Shoulder, Says Manager John Farrell

Red Sox starter Clay Buchholz heard good news (again) regarding his neck and shoulder.

The righty, who traveled to Florida to see specialist Dr. James Andrews, has no structural damage in his neck or shoulder, manager John Farrell told the media prior to the Sox-Rays game.

After Red Sox doctors told the righty the same thing following an MRI, Buchholz  wanted a second opinion from Andrews for “peace of mind,” according to the skipper.

Buchholz (9-0, 1.171 ERA) hasn’t pitched for the Red Sox since June 8.
