Ellsbury out six weeks

[love_that_reefer]

Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston.com confirms that Jacoby Ellsbury has a dislocation or partial dislocation of his right shoulder and will miss a minimum of six weeks.
Ellsbury injured the shoulder when Reid Brignac landed directly on top of him at second base during Friday's game. He was immediately sent to Massachusetts General Hospital for an MRI, but he's scheduled to undergo even more tests to make sure shoulder did not sustain additional damage. Darnell McDonald, Cody Ross and Ryan Sweeney will start in the Red Sox outfield, at least until Carl Crawford comes off the disabled list.

Red Sox woes continue as the 2011 Comeback Player of the Year goes down joining Crawford and Bailey as key players on the DL. Who knows, if Johnny Damon waited a couple of days he could have been a Red Sox again.

Best leadoff hitter in the league and can't be replaced if you ask me. Even bigger of a loss considering the Red Sox close start, and the AL east appears to be very tight this year, Rays look good, Yankees look good, even the Orials and the Blue Jays look much improved.

Ellsbury was activate today. He could be just what the Red Sox need to climb the AL East ladder.
