All Star Giant’s star Brian Wilson will be soon undergoing an elbow surgery of reconstructive nature in Pensacola recently. Dr. James Andrews will be the doctor who will be performing the surgery. He is an orthopaedist and has performed similar kind of action to Brian during the collage days of the Giant’s star player. He will be assisted by Dr. Ken Akizuki.
Andrews has recently examined Brian and reported of a torn lunar collateral ligament. This outcome of the diagnosis will make the player sit in the benches throughout the whole season. He proclaimed that the time period of recovery is around 12-18 months in the standard cases. But it can take more time also depending upon the circumstances.
Giant is keeping all the hopes and is keeping their finger crossed for Brian. They believe that he will be healing faster and will be available for the MLB games in 2013.
“We are ready for the surgery to take place and want to get rid of the problem as soon as possible” said Bruce Bochy, manager, before the match with Philadelphia Phillies.
Bruce added, “From my experiences it takes more time to heal from the second time of the injury. But at the same time I am hoping that Brain will take over the field for the MLB seasons in 2013”.
30 year old Brian did forty eight saves in 2010 and also did the final out of the game number five of the MLB World Series. He grabbed the victory for his franchise.
Brian reported the discomfort in his elbow and soon he was sent for an MRI scan. According to Groeschner, Brain felt the discomfort on his elbow after the 32 pitch throw that he did in Colorado. But he reported the problem to the team a day after the event.
Brain has taken all necessary steps for his rehabilitation throughout the spring. Thus his injury took everyone around him by surprise.
Bochy said, “Brian will return back and will be resuming his rehabilitation process. He will be helping his teammates also.”
Bullpen took over the brains position last year and the team is very much confident about him doing well in the games. There are also other options available like Santiago Casilla for the place of Wilson in the team.
Romo said that their staffs are well equipped and they will be able to pitch in all kinds of the given situations. He added that there no pressure on the players to win the first game that was very close.
