The Red Sox say that Sale has a strained flexor in his throwing elbow and has been advised not to throw for at least another week. (Jason Mastrodonato on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact
It's a minor bit of good news for now for Sale owners, though Sale himself conceded that Tommy John surgery is still a real possibility if he continues to feel pain when he throws again. He'll remain a polarizing player in re-draft leagues and see his value depressed in keeper/dynasty formats until there's more clarity on the injury one way or another.
