Pedroia is expected to be placed on the disabled list Friday for a new injury he obtained to his right thumb, a major league source told the Boston Herald.

Pedroia is thought to have injured his thumb while diving for a ball in Tuesday’s game versus the Oakland Athletics. Pedroia already missed six games last month with a partially torn abductor muscle in the same thumb. The current injury is said to be in a different place in the thumb.

The 2008 MVP is hitting .266 with six home runs and 33 RBIs for the season.
