Colin McHugh (elbow), who signed a one-year contract with the Red Sox on Thursday, has yet to begin a throwing program this spring and will likely open the season on the 15-day injured list, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports. (Pete Abraham on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

McHugh will be a starter in Boston after bouncing between the bullpen and rotation in Houston. The 32-year-old struggled to a 4.70 ERA over 74 2/3 innings last year while battling an elbow issue but posted a stellar 1.99 ERA with 94 strikeouts across 72 1/3 innings for the Astros in 2018.
