Red Sox third baseman Mike Lowell said that he feels "great...really good" following the draining of fluid and the injection of Synvisc (a lubricating substance) in his right hip on Monday. Though the Sox opted to place him on the disabled list, Lowell said that the decision was one of precaution rather than necessity, a means of ensuring that he will be well rested and as healthy as possible for the second half.
Towards the end, Lowell acknowledged that he will likely have more days off in the second half than he did at the start of the season.
