Boston Red Sox reliever Justin Slaten is expected to miss the remainder of the season due to right elbow inflammation, according to reports. Slaten has been on the injured list for about a month as the issue continues to affect his availability.
The two outlets provide the same core update on his status and the reason for it, citing the right elbow inflammation that has kept him sidelined. While both accounts indicate he is “likely done for the season,” they do not provide additional specifics such as a return date, the exact medical timeline, or whether any procedure is being considered.
Overall, the reporting aligns on the injury (right elbow inflammation) and the current outcome projection (missing the rest of the season), with no conflicting details or alternative explanations presented.
