Red Sox 'Walker Beiehler appears an injured list of shoulder injury

The Boston Red Sox have just received Lucas Giolito in the rotation and will now have another starter for the next few trips carried out.

Alex Cora said reporters that Walker Beicher would go to the injured list with his right shoulder inflammation, according to Weis Rob Bradford and Ian Browne from MLB.com. Hunter Dobbins will probably start on Saturday for the Red Sox against the Minnesota Twins.

Cora noticed that Buehler's time should be minimal on the IL, which would be better for the Red Sox. Buehler won each of his last three starts and did not allow more than three runs in four consecutive excursions.

In his first six starts, the Red Sox right-hander is 4: 1 with an ERA of 4.28. Its impact seems to be even more necessary than the next best arm crawled far behind Ace Garrett.

Dobbins is certainly able to take on the role at the productive level. He won each of his first two MLB starts for the Red Sox in April with victories over the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago White Sox. Dobbins will be a necessary stop gap for Boston in the coming weeks with Buehler, Richard Forms and cutter Crawford, who still dealt with injuries.
