Its time for Dice K to hit the disabled list

The Red Sox regular starter Daisuke Matsuzaka has been put in the disabled list by the team as he is suffering from a slight right arm strain that he picked up during the game against the Orioles last Friday night. He will not be featuring in a Red Sox baseball match for a period of 15 days. Dice-K is relieved that the MRI scan on his right rotor cuff did not show any structural damage. Terry Francona, the Red Sox manager, said that Dice K will be strengthening his right shoulder during his DL period and will get him ready to pitch for the rest of the season. The ticket holding Sox fans will not be able to see him pitch live until mid June.
