Masataka Yoshida has been out since April 28 with a left thumb strain, and while he isn't ready to return just yet, the Japanese outfielder appears to have avoided the worst case scenario.
outfielder Masataka Yoshida received a third opinion on his thumb injury on Thursday and told Japanese media members that he would not require surgery,
Manager Alex Cora said at the time at surgery was a possibility for Yoshida. After a second and third opinion, however, it appears as if Yoshida will not have to go under the knife. The Red Sox signed Yoshida to a five-year, $90 million contract ahead of the 2023 season. He went on to hit .289 with 15 home runs, 72 RBI, a .783 OPS and a 1.4 WAR, finishing sixth in AL Rookie of the Year voting in the process.
Fans were baffled when Yoshida made just two starts in a nine-game span in April, and just when it seemed like he was getting comfortable in the lineup again, he got hurt.
