Source: Angels ace Garrett Richards expected to undergo Tommy John surgery
Los Angeles Angels ace Garrett Richards has a torn ulnar collateral ligament
in his right elbow and is expected to need Tommy John surgery, a source with
knowledge of the situation told Yahoo Sports.
The 27-year-old Richards, one of the hardest-throwing starters in the major
leagues, would miss the remainder of the season and not return until the
middle of 2017 should he undergo the procedure.
The tear was found Thursday, when the Angels scratched Richards from his
scheduled Friday start citing dehydration and fatigue.
天使队王牌Garett Richards右手肘的尺侧副韧带撕裂
将会接受Tommy John手术,今年赛季确定报销了
可能要等到2017年的季中才能回到球场上
本季成绩:
1W3L IP 34.2 SO 34 ERA 2.34
Richards是在星期四被发现有撕裂伤的情况
原本是想要寻求其他的治疗方式
但是球团认为他的伤势难以复原,只好选择动刀治疗
除此之外,先发左投Andrew Heaney的UCL也出现受损的情况
但是会他以复健的方式以避免TJ手术
而阵中的另一名左投C.J. Wilson则是因为肩膀问题被放入60天伤兵名单
