Chris Sale And Red Sox Getting A Third Opinion

"Teams usually don't get a third opinion to confirm good news."

Indeed.

Peter Abraham, Globe, March 4, 2020:

Ron Roenicke on Chris Sale: Red Sox waiting for one more opinion from Dr. Neal Elattrache. "We need to get this right."

Roenicke said not to assume the worst-case scenario. But teams usually don't get a third opinion to confirm good news. Getting opinions from Andrews and ElAttrache certainly suggests there's a significant injury.
