Shaw suffered "an impingement" in his right shoulder during the opener of the Puerto Rico Winter League and will require a few weeks to recover, the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Red Sox executive Dave Dombrowski confirmed the nature of the injury, while stating that Shaw will spend the next two-and-a-half weeks in therapy, thereby ending the winter-ball stint after one game. He should be fine by the time spring training rolls around, at which point he'll compete for a gig in the corner infield.
