Red Sox's Rafael Devers (shoulder) to sit out All-Star Game.
BOSTON -- Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers has been scratched from the All-Star Game with left shoulder soreness.Boston manager Alex Cora said Tuesday that Devers has been dealing with an injury in the AC joint for a while. Although the 27-year-old Dominican player was in the lineup for Tuesday night's game against Oakland, Cora said "he's been grinding through a few things."
"As a group, we believe it's a good time for him to get some rest and take care of it," Cora said.
Cora said the team notified Major League Baseball of the need for a replacement for the July 16 game in Arlington, Texas. The league then announced that Orioles third baseman Jordan Westburg has been added to the AL roster to fill Devers' spot.
Devers is batting .293 with 21 homers and 55 RBIs this season, earning his third All-Star Game selection. He homered twice in Sunday night's victory over New York in Yankee Stadium.
The Red Sox took two of three from the Yankees and have won 14 of their past 19 to improve to nine games over .500, matching a season high. Boston is 7½ games behind Baltimore in the AL East and in possession of the third AL wild-card spot entering Tuesday.
"We all believe there's more here; we're shooting for something bigger than the All-Star Game," Cora said. "For him to be healthy, that's the most important thing."
Dodgers All-Star pitcher Tyler Glasnow (back) goes on 15-day IL.
PHILADELPHIA -- The Los Angeles Dodgers placed All-Star right-hander Tyler Glasnow on the 15-day injured list with back tightness.Glasnow, 30, is 8-5 with a 3.47 ERA in his first season with the Dodgers. He was acquired in a December trade with Tampa Bay and received a $136.5 million, five-year contract as part of the trade that brought him back to Southern California.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said ahead of Tuesday's game in Philadelphia that Glasnow's back flared up while he played catch over the weekend. Roberts said Glasnow should return at some point after the All-Star break.
Glasnow leads the major leagues with 143 strikeouts, and that total is the most before to the All-Star Game in Dodgers history since Clayton Kershaw fanned 159 batters in 2017. Glasnow's 11.81 strikeout per nine innings is second-best in baseball.
Cincinnati Reds pitcher Hunter Greene was named as an injury replacement to the NL All-Star team. Greene is 5-4 with a 3.45 ERA.
With a fastball that gets into the upper 90s, along with a nasty curveball and slider, Glasnow has one of baseball's best pitching repertoires. But he has been hampered by injuries.
He had Tommy John surgery on Aug. 4, 2021. He missed the beginning of last season with a strained left oblique, and then set career highs with 162 strikeouts, 120 innings and 21 starts.
The Dodgers had six All-Stars after Glasnow: catcher Will Smith, first baseman Freddie Freeman, outfielder Teoscar Hernández and injured shortstop Mookie Betts joined starting DH Shohei Ohtani on the NL roster.
The Dodgers recalled right-handed pitcher Michael Petersen from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
