Lugo lands on 15-day DL: The Boston Red Sox placed shortstop Julio Lugo on the 15-day disabled list with a left quad strain on Saturday. Lugo was injured Friday night while running out an infield single in the ninth inning of Boston's 7-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles. (Updated 07/12/2008).
Injury Report
Quadriceps - 15-day DL. Out until at least late July (Updated - 7/12/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Lugo began to limp as he approached first base, then dropped to ground shortly after hitting the bag. He was hitting .268 with 12 steals for Boston this season. The Red Sox called up prospect Jed Lowrie to take his spot. Lowrie hit .310 with 7 RBI in 17 games with Boston earlier this year. Lugo has become primarily an AL-only Fantasy SS when healthy. He can be used as a middle infield option in larger mixed leagues. (Updated 07/12/2008).
