Honestly, yes you do, because you don't know how long it will last, but you know with a good amount of certainty that rest and working privately when he has energy to do so is better than forcing him out into a big league ballgame where he has to focus for hours on end. 

This isn't really true. If it is just soreness as all reports are indicating, you really don't just want to rest it. It needs to stressed properly to heal more efficiently. The Sox medical staff feels that he is only in a soreness stage and not injury. If he can't deal with the soreness, they may as well just plan on IL stints each month for the rest of his career and probably more once he gets older.

The prize of the White Flag Trade was supposed to be Barcelo. He was always saying something was wrong, and the medical people couldn’t find anything. They told him to pitch through it. It got to the point KW literally called him a pussy. It turned out, however, he needed elbow and shoulder surgery.

 

Happens all the time. Medicine is a practice not a science. If you shut down everyone who is sore and they can't find anything, there wouldn't be anyone playing a month into the season.

That was in reference to Mazara, not Moncada.
