Boston's Masataka Yoshida (hand) sitting Monday
The Boston Red Sox will not start Masataka Yoshida (hand) in Monday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.
What It Means
Yoshida was removed from Sunday's game after being struck in the hand by a pitch and will now miss Monday's game as well, though it seems like the team isn't particularly worried about his availability going forward. The second-year hitter is projected for 213 more plate appearances this year, with 4 homers, 22 runs, 23 RBI, and a .262 batting average.
