Boston places newly acquired infielder Curtis Mead on the injured list after he sustains a broken left wrist in his debut with the Red Sox. Multiple outlets report the injury occurs when Mead is hit by a pitch during his first game with Boston, and he does not play further before the team moves him to the IL. Fox Sports and other reports describe the injury as a broken wrist and say the time missed is initially undetermined. Additional reporting from Yahoo Sports indicates the injury may require a recovery period of roughly 6–8 weeks, which would likely keep him out for most of the remaining regular season. CBS Sports similarly notes that the Red Sox lose the newest addition to a fractured wrist and raises questions about whether Boston will look to reenter the trade market. The injury comes shortly after Boston acquires Mead from Washington in a trade that sends left-hander Connelly Early to the Nationals.
