Dealing with mild pectoral strain Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Fitts has been diagnosed with a mild right pectoral strain, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Impact Fitts had to be lifted from his last start Saturday versus the White Sox with the injury and was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday. While it's good news that it's been deemed a mild strain, Cora indicated there is no timetable for the right-hander's return. Fitts' next turn in the rotation comes up Friday, and with Brayan Bello (shoulder) and Lucas Giolito (hamstring) not quite ready, the Red Sox will likely choose from Michael Fulmer, Cooper Criswell, Josh Winckowski or Hunter Dobbins to take the ball Friday against the White Sox.

Lands on IL with pec strain The Red Sox placed Fitts on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right pectoral strain, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Impact Fitts was diagnosed with the pec strain after he was removed from his start in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the White Sox in the sixth inning, when he experienced pain in the shoulder area. The Red Sox haven't provided a timeline for his return from the IL, but given the nature of his injury, Fitts will likely need more than the minimum 15 days to heal. Boston selected the contract of right-hander Michael Fulmer from Triple-A Worcester to provide some bullpen depth in the short term, but long reliever Josh Winckowski or Triple-A starters Cooper Criswell and Hunter Dobbins would appear to be the most likely candidates to fill Fitts' spot in the rotation.

Exits with injury Fitts was removed from Saturday's game against the White Sox due to an apparent injury, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Impact Fitts had been cruising through his start Saturday, giving up just two hits and a walk while striking out five batters across five shutout frames. He came back out to start the sixth inning but only threw a couple of pitches before grabbing at his underarm/pectoral area. The Red Sox will take a closer look at him to determine what kind of damage was done, and they should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Takes loss in quality start Fitts (0-2) allowed three runs on six hits and four walks over six innings Monday, striking out four and taking a loss against the Blue Jays.
Impact Fitts escaped a bases-loaded threat unscathed in the first inning before Toronto plated a pair of runs in the third and another in the fifth. He wasn't very effective and had to dance around a few sticky situations. Fitts tossed 102 pitches (67 strikes) and generated 13 whiffs, including five each with his fastball and slider. He's given up exactly three runs over six frames in each of his first two starts this season but has an 0-2 record to show for it. Fitts will continue searching for his first win in his next outing, which is projected to be on the road this weekend against the White Sox.
