Beckett Opts For Season-Ending Surgery 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sun Jun 30, 2013 1:08 pm

Josh Beckett will undergo season-ending surgery, the Dodgers have announced.


After consulting with Dr. Neal ElAttrache and Dr. Greg Pearl, the Dodgers decided Beckett would undergo surgery to relieve pressure on the nerve in his neck area, known as thoracic outlet syndrome.


Beckett is expected to be sidelined three-to-five months, which would put him back on the field in time for spring training.
