Shane Drohan, a Boston Red Sox pitching prospect, was placed on the 7-day injured list due to left forearm inflammation. The 26-year-old has enjoyed a stellar season with the WooSox, boasting a 2.03 ERA across 26 â
innings and earning 38 strikeouts. After a challenging period, including shoulder surgery earlier in 2024, he has become a notable prospect again. Although Drohan faced earlier struggles, the Red Sox remain optimistic about his recovery and view his IL stint as potentially short-term, with hopes for a swift return to form.
Drohan has put himself back on the map as a prospect this year after a difficult couple of years, including undergoing shoulder surgery in February 2024.
Senior director of player development Brian Abraham replied in a text that the Red Sox are "hopeful" it's a short-term IL stint.
He has a 2.03 ERA (26 â innings, six earned runs), 1.05 WHIP and .177 batting average against in seven outings (six starts) for the WooSox this year.
Boston drafted him in the fifth round in 2020 out of Florida State and was ranked as high as Boston's No. 3 pitching prospect early in the 2023 season.
