Dustin Pedroia leaves game with hamstring issue

Dustin Pedroia (hamstring) expects to play in Thursday's series finale with the Rockies after exiting Wednesday's tilt early, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports. Pedroia left Wednesday's game in the fifth inning in favor of a pinch-runner after feeling some tightness in his right hamstring. Following the game, he indicated that he intends to play Thursday. He was 1-for-3 prior to his exit Wednesday. (Rob Bradford on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The hamstring injury does not sound serious and it looks like the Red Sox were just being cautious. But it could mean Pedroia may miss the game on Thursday as Boston has done a good job this season giving Pedroia days off and keeping him healthy.
