Would that be a season-ending injury needing surgery?

Probably not surgery. Repairing a muscle is like tying to pieces of spaghetti together. It rarely works. The 3 months to 9 month timeframe would be reasonable for a return depending on the severity of the tear.

Man, this sucks.  I am not overly hopeful at this juncture.  Posted this video in the other Eloy thread, but this is a doctor analyzing the video and its not very encouraging.

I really don’t know what direction the Sox can go if Eloy is down. I really think they will miss the playoffs unless they do something drastic which I don’t think they will. It really sucks.

Not drastic, but trading for Tauchman makes sense.

Whats the realistic best case scenario in terms of missed time if its just the shoulder and not pec?

2-4 weeks if it was just a subluxation and none of the primary passive stabilizers (ligaments, labrum) were significantly injured.

Worst case surgery and 9 months.

This is still a top 5 AL offense without Eloy I believe. We should still make the playoffs with a good offense, great bullpen and good 1-3 SP (quentionable back end).
