Would suggest y'all listen to the interview on Bustin Loose. He's really optimistic. Says that he's been dealing with fatigue and lingering soreness all season (and before), and that's why his starts weren't every fifth day. In the interview, he says that they gave him four weeks off, then had him throw, same issues. Went and saw a specialist, who gave him a nerve blocker. And with the nerve blocked, it was night and day difference. Also said that a lot of the guys he talked to that had recovered and are still playing had the same experience with the nerve block.
Says he thinks he will be ready for Spring Training.
