McPherson done for the season?

According to tonight's broadcast, after having seen a specialist in Denver, Dallas McPherson has has been diagnosed with a bone spur and likely faces season-ending surgery. (Now corroborated by Rotoworld, h/t to an anonymous commenter.)

Well, drat.

Comments:


The Angels team doctor IS at Kerlan-Jobe. IMO he's off to yet another specialist elsewhere. Frankly, I'd just as soon he got this fixed and was shutdown rather than damaging his joints. Every time I read about a player trying to play through or rehab-instead-of-surgery joint injuries, you seem to read about them being screwed up even worse later on. The Angels will need McPherson's bat more than just this year.

And we thought Glaus was gonna be injury prone. Damn.
