Monday's tests confirmed Pedroia doesn't have any fractured ribs, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

This strengthens the Red Sox's stance that Pedroia's injury won't require a trip to the disabled list, though he's still experiencing swelling and pain, so he'll likely need at least a couple days to recover being returning to the lineup. While he remains day-to-day, Josh Rutledge should see time at second base in his place.
