Obama: Kyrie Irving, Cavs are Going to be Fun to Watch
October 11, 2012Phil Taylor on schedule to return to practice
October 11, 2012Michael Brantley shouldn’t have any trouble getting ready for the season even though he just had sports hernia surgery.
From the Indians…
Please note OF MICHAEL BRANTLEY underwent surgery this morning in Philadelphia, PA to repair a core muscle injury (sports hernia) on the left side of his abdominal wall. The 24-minute procedure was performed by Dr. William Meyers. The typical recovery time is 3-6 weeks.
Michael will begin physical therapy early next week at his home in Florida and he is expected to be unrestricted when he begins his off-season strength and conditioning regimen in late November.
If the Indians are going to make any kind of jump from their disappointing season this season, Brantley would seemingly have to be a part of it. The 25-year-old hit 0.288 while covering a good amount of ground as the Indians’ center fielder.

Another athlete gets bogus “sports hernia” surgery. Hopefully the placebo procedure performed helps Brantley feel better.
