Red Sox shut down Tanner Houck indefinitely, increasing need for another starter at trade deadline

Boston Red Sox

Red Sox pitcher Tanner Houck has hit another bump on his road to a return. The righty starter has been shut down indefinitely and will have to go back to “step one” of his recovery, according to Boston manager Alex Cora. Houck has been on the shelf for over two months with right flexor soreness. Cora said Houck felt the injury again in his last rehab outing with the Worcester Red Sox on July 9.
