Boston Red Sox fans dejected by report that Trevor Story could miss entire 2023 season following UCL surgery: "We're done" "Boycott this team"

Boston Red Sox fans received some bad news on Tuesday regarding Trevor Story. It's been reported that the slugger had surgery on his throwing elbow and will miss some time next season. Story underwent an internal bracing procedure on his right ulnar collateral ligament.This is a less invasive surgery than if he had gone to have the full Tommy John surgery. While it's less invasive, it will take time for him to recover. Generally, this procedure has a four to six-month recovery time.Jeff Passan@JeffPassanTrevor Story underwent UCL surgery with an internal brace on his right elbow -- in other words, modified Tommy John surgery with a quicker return date.Generally speaking, players miss four to six months following the surgery.2351273Trevor Story underwent UCL surgery with an internal brace on his right elbow -- in other words, modified Tommy John surgery with a quicker return date.Generally speaking, players miss four to six months following the surgery.The four to six-month timeframe would set him up for a June or July return. But the team isn't 100% certain he'll be able to play at all next season. Boston CBO Chaim Bloom told reporters there's no timetable for Story's return.This isn't what Red Sox fans wanted to hear after watching All-Star shortstop Xander Bogaerts walk in free agency. With Bogaerts now on the San Diego Padres, the Red Sox are left empty-handed when it comes to middle infielders.&quot;We're done,&quot; one fan tweeted.Joey@soxfanjoey@JeffPassan We’re done@JeffPassan We’re done&quot;Boycott this team,&quot; said another fan.Ken@KW492127@PeteAbe @KenLairdWEEI Boycott this team3@PeteAbe @KenLairdWEEI Boycott this teamBrian@walrus655321@PeteAbe No wonder they threw the bank at Devers.

First, they lost Mookie Betts, then Bogaerts, and now they might be without Trevor Story for a full season. Fans are hoping this is all just a bad dream.Dougie D@dougiesgoindeep@PeteAbe Atleast we signed Xander3@PeteAbe Atleast we signed XanderEagleinBrighton@EagleinBrighton@PeteAbe If the Sox knew this was likely and still let Xander walk, just malpractice. The mishandling of Xander and the signing of Story (which was bad even in the moment) is grounds alone for firing Bloom (without even mentioning other missteps — like Betts, etc.).1@PeteAbe If the Sox knew this was likely and still let Xander walk, just malpractice.

Also works out nicely that we didn’t try to get in on any of the others…This is pretty much the worst-case scenario for the Red Sox. It's going to be tough for them to compete in a stacked American League East.After the Trevor Story news, expectations are low for the Boston Red SoxBoston Red Sox v Los Angeles AngelsIt's a good thing the Red Sox went out and extended Rafael Devers, or things really would have hit the fan in Boston. The two sides agreed to an 11-year, $331 million contract.He's one of the few players fans can get excited about. The team has too many players who either didn't have a good season last year or are young prospects whose futures are uncertain.They don't have a roster that can compete with the New York Yankees, especially if Story can potentially miss the entirety of the 2023 season. From pitching to fielding to hitting, the Yankees overpower the Red Sox.Hopefully, Trevor Story can make a quick return to the Boston Red Sox lineup. The league is better when both the Red Sox and the Yankees have stellar rosters.
