James Paxton shouldn’t start the season on time

For three years, James Paxton has been one of major league baseball’s unluckiest pitchers. After all, the Canadian pitcher can’t stay healthy.

After a full first season in New York in 2019, he only pitched five games during the short season in 2020. He chose to return with the Mariners to Seattle in 2021, where he suffered an injury in his first game of the regular season.

And since then he hasn’t pitched. It’s been 24 months.

He thought he could start with Boston last year, but his rehabilitation process (Tommy John) went wrong, he was reinjured during a rehab departure.

There, at the 2023 Sox camp, he was better. But yesterday, while throwing, he suffered a grade 1 hamstring sprain. So he is still on the sidelines… and he should, once again, start the season without being able to throw.

It can’t be easy for him, unfortunately.

The 34-year-old pitcher, who will be a free agent at the end of the 2023 season after earning $4 million, needs to have a big season to continue his career. And there, it went wrong.

At least, the club are confident of having avoided a major injury, but we’re still talking about a problem for the Red Sox right now. For what?

Because the club needs pitchers.

With Garrett Whitlock and Brayan Bello also set to start the season on the sidelines, there aren’t many certainties in town.

Right now, Chris Sale, Nick Pivetta and Corey Kluber, three men who are prone to injury, are the three certainties in the rotation. Will Tanner Houck be used as a starter?

The situation is not easy for a club that will have to work hard to avoid finishing last in the American League East Division.

  • Gerrit Cole has to adapt to the PitchCom.
  • Here is Shohei Ohtani in the colors of Japan.
  • The Cubs went a game without a run or hit yesterday.
  • The Padres don’t do things like other people.
  • Mookie Betts is fascinating.
