J.D. Drew's Back Is Back

Despite the protestations of both J.D. Drew and manager Terry Francona earlier in camp that the outfielder's back was not an issue, Drew was sent back to Boston to get an injection in his lower back. The injection, administered by Dr. Bill Palmer, was given yesterday.

For Red Sox right fielder J.D. Drew, the maintenance of his unpredictable back is something he needs to pay as close attention to as the nuances of his swing. And it's for that reason that Drew flew back to Boston and got an injection in his lower back on Monday. He was back in camp on Tuesday, but probably won't play again until Friday at the earliest.
