Johnson designated
Following this afternoon’s 12-4 loss to the Yankees, the Red Sox activated Keith Foulke off the disabled list and designated Game 1 starter Jason Johnson for assignment. Johnson, who took the loss, gave up seven hits and four runs over 4 1/3 innings.
“I don’t take any enjoyment in doing that,” manager Terry Francona said. “But I don’t think we had any options.”
Francona said that Johnson elected to discuss his options with his agent before making any decisions.
