He will remain on the IL as he continues to deal with the strain and has a seven-day period before he\u2019s eligible to begin another rehab assignment.<\/p>\n<p id=\"Y74G2UE6QREBRPS6MDTNANTB64\">\u201cWe\u2019re going to keep him on the IL,\u201d manager Alex Cora said before Boston\u2019s game against the Cubs on Saturday at Wrigley Field. \u201cSo that\u2019s what we\u2019ve got right now. I know the trainers are working on him over there in Boston and we\u2019ll have more information in the upcoming days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"KYAQAJXNARFLROEAQGL6WG7VL4\">Houck, an All-Star last year, posted an 8.04 ERA (43 \u2154 innings, 39 earned runs) in nine starts for Boston before landing on the 15-day injured list May 14.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5MQOPQOOQFGIVCGULO5QULEXOY\">The 29-year-old posted a 5.74 ERA (15 \u2154 innings, 10 runs) on 18 hits and six walks while striking out 15 over five rehab outings (four starts). Four of those five outings came with Triple-A Worcester. One was with Double-A Portland.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5VM7YQTK6RHWPKEQV5OWFM7SFM\">It took him time to bounce back from some rehab starts and he told MassLive on July 1 that he still had \u201ca little inflammation in the back of the triceps.\u201d<\/p>\n<section data-gaid=\":Rdnaq6:\">\n<ul data-testid=\"list\">\n<li>Some Things I Think I Think: Upcoming trade deadline has Craig Breslow on hot seat<\/li>\n<li>Why Red Sox\u2019 Alex Cora didn\u2019t consider pinch hitting for Connor Wong<\/li>\n<li>Red Sox reactions: Offense has scored just two runs in two games vs. Cubs<\/li>\n<li>Red Sox plug rookie starter into injured Hunter Dobbins\u2019 rotation spot<\/li>\n<li>Red Sox\u2019 Alex Cora gives \u2018positive\u2019 injury updates on 3 relievers; \u2018Big step\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
