The Boston Herald is reporting that Mike Timlin won’t pitch against the A’s on Tuesday or Wednesday. The Herald says there is a chance that the Sox will put Timlin on the DL to start the season.
Timlin has two stitches in his finger, and the Sox want to be cautious with him. According to the Herald, another reason for a possible DL move is to give the Sox more time to figure out the final bullpen roster spot. Bryan Corey, David Aardsma and Javier Lopez are battling for the final spot.
