FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Boston Red
Sox<http://espn.go.com/mlb/team/_/name/bos/boston-red-sox>shortstop
Stephen
Drew <http://espn.go.com/mlb/player/_/id/6298/stephen-drew> is headed for
Pittsburgh on Tuesday to be evaluated over the next two days at the
University of Pittsburgh Medical Center's Sports Medicine Concussion
Program.

Drew has not played since March 7, when he was struck in the helmet by a
pitch thrown by Twins pitcher Caleb Thielbar. At the time, Drew appeared
OK. He remained in the game for another inning and did not complain of
symptoms, but reported to the club the next day that he began to experience
symptoms that night. The team has yet to declare that Drew will not be
available at the start of the regular season, but it appears a foregone
conclusion.

"That window is closing," manager John Farrell said Tuesday morning.

*LOSER*

K9. A team that leaves the draft heralding Josh Johnson as an ace already
suffers from brain cramps, but the Drew development sends further shock
through a team still rubbing its head over $38 purchase of Longoria.

*WINNER*

Berliners. Clever owner will now play K9 off Nukes in brilliant strategy to
optimize early dump deal market to acquire the 18 players Winick needs to
square off against the Red Hots.
