The Boston Red Sox bullpen suffered another significant loss at the worst possible time.
Boston is placing right-handed reliever Justin Slaten on the injured list with elbow soreness, according to The Boston Globe's Alex Speier. Left-hander Raymond Burgos will be recalled from Triple-A Worcester to fill Slaten's roster spot.
The move comes only three days after the Red Sox placed setup man Garrett Whitlock on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.
Boston now has lost two of its most trusted right-handed relievers in less than one week, leaving interim manager Chad Tracy with a much different late-inning picture behind closer Aroldis Chapman.
