We noted yesterday that Matt Kemp?s shoulder surgery was a success ? all surgery on athletes is a success ? but the post-op news from L.A. is not all good. Dylan Hernandez of The Los Angeles Times reports that Kemp?s shoulder was more damaged than first thought, and there is a chance that he will not be at full-strength to start the 2013 season:
He and the?Dodgers?were hoping the damage would be relatively minor and require nothing more than a cleanup, but Dr. Neal ElAttrache decided the labrum had to be repaired ? that is, reattached to the socket.
While the team?s statement said he?d be good to go come spring, Hernandez notes that Adrian Gonzalez had that same surgery in October 2010 and that he was limited to 11 spring training games in 2011 and started off slowly, power wise, that season.?The good news, of course, is that he ended up being OK as the season wore on.
No sense in worrying too much about Kemp now, but keep that all in your back pocket for when February rolls around.
