Red Sox RF Drew still has stiff back (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Boston Red Sox right fielder J.D. Drew is still bothered by back stiffness from a herniated disk that limited him in 2008. Drew said Sunday that he had an MRI after the season and the exam didn't show any serious damage. He said he fought the injury all offseason, but it continues to linger. "It's still pretty stiff," he said.
