Eovaldi threw from his knees Saturday for the second time since having stitches removed from his elbow, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi is in the early stages of his rehab work after undergoing surgery on his elbow April 23. He was expected to resume pitching six weeks out from the procedure, so he is still at least a few weeks away from being ready to return.

Eovaldi had stitches removed from his elbow Wednesday, Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi is still weeks away from rejoining the Red Sox, who have not yet divulged a definitive plan for when he will start throwing.

The Red Sox relayed that Eovaldi is expected to resume pitching in six weeks after undergoing successful surgery Tuesday to remove loose bodies from his right elbow, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Alex Cora wouldn't confirm how long Eovaldi would be sidelined when discussing the matter with the media Tuesday, but a team representative has since offered more definitive word regarding the 29-year-old's recovery timeline. It remains unclear if the six-week period marks when Eovaldi will be ready to resume a rehab assignment or when he'll be ready to return from the 10-day injured list, so it wouldn't be surprising if his recovery program lasted closer to two months. Eovaldi had previously missed around eight weeks after requiring a similar procedure in 2018.

Manager Alex Cora said Eovaldi's elbow surgery Tuesday went as expected, but the skipper wouldn't confirm a timetable for the right-hander's return from the 10-day injured list, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi's procedure involved the removal of loose bodies from his throwing elbow, a surgery nearly identical to the one he required a year ago. That surgery sidelined Eovaldi for about two months, and it's likely that he's facing a similar length of absence this time around, with Rob Bradford of WEEI.com relaying that the 29-year-old is expected to be out for 4-to-6 weeks. The Red Sox should hone in on a more defined target date for Eovaldi's return once he's on the cusp of starting a minor-league rehab assignment. In the meantime, Boston will turn to long reliever Hector Velazquez to fill Eovaldi's spot in the rotation.

Eovaldi will undergo surgery Tuesday to remove loose bodies in his right elbow, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports. He's expected to miss 4-to-6 weeks as a result, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi landed on the injured list over the weekend with a loose body in his right elbow, and after a visit with the doctor on Monday it was confirmed that surgery would be necessary. The right-hander missed two months after undergoing a similar procedure in 2018, though he's confident his return will be quicker this time around; Eovaldi was simultaneously recovering from Tommy John elbow surgery last season, which he believes prolonged his recovery and encouraged the Rays to be more cautious with him, per Jason mastrodonato of the Boston Herald. Hector Velazquez is starting in place of Eovaldi on Tuesday and is a candidate to stick in the rotation until the righty returns.

Eovaldi will visit a doctor Monday to determine whether he needs surgery on his right elbow, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi has a loose body in his elbow which is reportedly in a bad place, preventing the pitcher from stretching his arm out. Eovaldi missed two months due to arthroscopic surgery for the same issue last season, so he could miss a lengthy period if surgery is required.

The Red Sox placed Eovaldi on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a loose body in his right elbow.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi is eligible to return from the IL on April 28, but there's a good chance he'll be shut down for more than the minimum about of time while dealing with the same elbow issue that required arthroscopic surgery and sidelined him for two months in 2018. The setback is especially disappointing after Eovaldi turned in what was by far his best outing of the season in his last turn Wednesday, when he limited the Yankees to one unearned run over six frames and struck out six. Boston will first require a replacement for Eovaldi in next week's series with the Tigers, with long reliever Hector Velazquez perhaps representing the top candidate to fill the opening in the rotation.

Eovaldi allowed one unearned run on three hits and one walk over six innings during Wednesday's loss to the Yankees. He had six strikeouts but did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi saw his chance at the win vanish as the Boston bullpen served up a grand slam during the seventh inning, keeping him without a decision through his first four starts. The 29-year-old has a 6.00 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 16:11 K:BB over 21 innings heading into his next start against the Tigers.

Eovaldi allowed five earned runs on six hits and four walks while striking out four across five innings Thursday against the Blue Jays. He did not factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi walked a tightrope through two scoreless innings to begin the game. However, he was hit hard in the third inning when he surrendered two home runs, which accounted for all five of his earned runs. Homers have been a big reason for Eovaldi's inflated 8.40 ERA, as he's allowed six of them through just 15 innings of work this season.

Eovaldi gave up three runs on four hits with four walks while striking out three though five innings in a no-decision against the Athletics on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Eovaldi wasn't efficient as he walked four batters and threw 96 pitches in only five innings. Through two starts, the 29-year-old has given up four home runs and has an ERA of 8.10. Eovaldi will get his next start Thursday against the Blue Jays.
