ANALYSIS
Since the White Sox picked up Drohan in the Rule 5 Draft before designating him for assignment last week, he had to be offered back to the Red Sox for $50,000. Boston has elected to pay that rate to return Drohan to his original organization. The left-hander has been limited to 9.1 innings this season -- all in the minors while on a rehab assignment -- after he underwent left shoulder nerve decompression surgery in late March. Drohan will likely report to Triple-A Worcester, but it's unclear if the Red Sox will have him work out of the rotation or the bullpen.
