Ranger Suarez Placed on 15-Day IL with Groin Strain, Out of All-Star Game

The Boston Red Sox have placed All-Star pitcher Ranger Suarez on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to Thursday, due to a left groin strain. The injury will force the two-time All-Star to miss next week's All-Star Game. This move is a significant blow to the Red Sox rotation as the veteran begins his recovery process. Suarez lands on the IL just days before what would have been his second career All-Star appearance.
