J.D. Drew To Play Friday

J.D. Drew said this morning he will return to the lineup tomorrow, his first action since flying to Boston on Sunday to receive a cortisonal shot Monday in his lower back. He planned to take live batting practice today. While acknowledging the seriousness of a needle in the spinal area, Drew downplayed the shot's effect on his ability to contribute on the field.

Because of their run-producing capabilities, the health of Mike Lowell and J.D. Drew could factor heavily into how successful Boston's offense is in 2009.
