Justin Masterson was placed on the 15 day disabled list by the Boston Red Sox, retroactive to Wednesday, May 12th, and the Red Sox recalled Robbie Ross Jr. from Pawtucket.

Masterson was not entirely pleased with the Red Sox diagnosis of "tendonitis" and it remains to be seen whether we have seen the last of Justin Masterson on the major league roster. It's clear, that after the 15 days are up, he'll have some extended time in Pawtucket or possibly Portland to get his form back, and his velocity up!

Masterson was unable to complete five innings in either of his last two starts, allowing a combined 10 earned runs over just 6 2/3 innings.
