If you were watching Friday night’s Red Sox game, you noticed Brendan Donnelly warming up to come in the game. Then you saw Joel Piñero getting loose in a hurry. At about the sametime President Remy and Don Orsillo said exactly what I was thinking, “Did Donnelly get hurt warming up?”

So I woke up yesterday morning and shot off this email to Amalie Benjamin and Gordon Edes of the Boston Globe since I didn’t see any mention in the paper.

I didn’t hear anything back during the day yesterday nor did I expect too. I figured I was wrong and said if it was anything, we’d hear about it in the Sunday paper. I didn’t see anything again this morning so I figured it was nothing.

Well sure enough, Donnelly did end up straining his forearm on Friday while he was warming up during the game and was placed on the 15 day DL. Manny Delcarmen was called up to replace him on the roster.
