The roller coaster that is the career of Mike Zagurski continues. The Phillies website is reporting that the lefty, who is recovering from a torn right hamstring, may need Tommy John surgery to repair his left elbow. Z-Man, who was a big part of the BlueClaws championship season in 2006 as well as making a splash with the Phillies last year, is seeking a second opinion. It is customary in these cases to get a second opinion to make sure.
If he has this surgery, he will miss all of 2008 and possibly part of 2009.
On Monday, the Phillies traded Michael Garciaparra to the the Orioles for future considerations, and announced that right handed pitcher Steve Green will stay in Florida to continue to build his arm strength. This leaves one spot remaining on the IronPigs roster, probably to be filled by someone still in major league camp.
There are 9 days until opening night in Lakewood
