Shut down indefinitely
PBoston Red Sox
Elbow
July 21, 2025
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Houck (elbow) will be shut down indefinitely after experiencing a recurrence of right flexor soreness, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Analysis
Cora doesn't anticipate that Houck will require surgery, but he said the pitcher will "go to step one" once he resumes throwing. The setback puts Houck's return this season at risk. The right-hander has been sidelined since mid-May.
