Has elbow bone bruise Whitlock has been diagnosed with a bone bruise in his right elbow, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Officially placed on injured list Whitlock was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right elbow inflammation, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Impact Whitlock suffered the injury during Sunday's start against the Blue Jays, but the good news is an MRI didn't reveal any structural damage. It remains unclear at this point how much time the right-hander might miss, however. He'll be eligible for activation on July 18.

Bound for IL but injury not serious Whitlock is expected to be placed on the 15-day injured list, but his right elbow injury isn't considered serious, Sean McAdam of MassLive.com reports.
Impact Whitlock had to be removed from Sunday's start against the Blue Jays due to tightness in his pitching elbow. While the results of an MRI have not yet been revealed, McAdam hears that the injury "is not being considered a major setback." Theoretically, Whitlock could miss only one start with the All-Star break coming up, although it's not clear at this point whether he will be ready to go when his 15 days are up or close to it. The good news is that it appears he's avoided a long-term injury.

Heading for MRI Manager Alex Cora said after Sunday's win over the Blue Jays that Whitlock (elbow) will undergo an MRI on Monday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Impact The right-hander lasted just one frame Sunday before being lifted due to right elbow tightness, which Cora indicated is presenting similarly to the elbow injury that kept him on the IL for most of May. It remains to be seen whether the 26-year-old will require a trip to the shelf this time around, but the Red Sox could play it safe given he's scheduled for just one more start before the All-Star break.

Impact The Red Sox will likely put Whitlock through a number of tests -- and possibly an MRI -- to confirm the severity of his injury, but given the nature of his initial diagnosis, the right-hander may face an uphill battle to make his final turn through the rotation before the All-Star break. With Tanner Houck (face) and Chris Sale (shoulder) both likely to be sidelined until August, Whitlock's injury only further depletes Boston's starting pitching depth.

Hammered by Miami Whitlock (4-3) took the loss in Tuesday's 10-1 rout at the hands of the Marlins, surrendering six runs on 11 hits over 4.2 innings. He struck out seven without walking a batter.
Impact While the whiffs did salvage his fantasy line to some extent, Whitlock was hit hard when he was in the strike zone and served up long balls to Bryan De La Cruz and Jean Segura, who had a combined nine homers on the season coming into the contest. The rough night snapped a three-game quality start streak for the right-hander, and Whitlock now has a 4.67 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 35:4 K:BB through 34.2 innings over six outings since returning to the rotation in late May. He'll look to bounce back in his next start, likely to come this weekend in Toronto.

Goes seven frames in no-decision Whitlock did not factor in the decision against Minnesota on Wednesday, allowing four runs on eight hits and striking out six batters over seven innings.
Impact Whitlock was efficient in the outing, throwing 88 pitches (60 for a strike) in his second straight seven-inning start. He racked up an impressive 16 swinging strikes, though they led to a modest six punchouts. Since a rough outing against Tampa Bay on June 3, Whitlock has rebounded by posting a 3.10 ERA and 19:2 K:BB over 20.1 innings across his subsequent three starts. His next appearance tentatively lines up to come at home against Miami.

Fans seven in fourth win Whitlock (4-2) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk over seven innings in a 6-3 victory over the Rockies. He struck out seven.
Impact The seven Ks were a season high for the right-hander, although he's made only seven starts so far due to injuries. Whitlock dominated with 18 swinging strikes (plus 18 called strikes) among his 92 pitches, and more remarkably he missed the strike zone with only 20 of his pitches. He'll take a 4.38 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 33:7 K:BB through 39 innings into his next outing, likely to come early next week in Minnesota.
