Kris Bryant To Have Surgery On His Back
Colorado Rockies designated hitter Kris Bryant (back) will have an ablation procedure performed on his back on Thursday in Los Angeles to aid in his healing, according to MLB.com's Thomas Harding. Bryant was hoping to have the procedure last week, but doctors found blood in an area that sparked fears of an infection. Thankfully, he tested negative for any infection. "It seems pretty intense," Bryant said. "But it's not a crazy recovery period. They actually go into the bone and try to kill the nerves to the vertebrae." The 33-year-old has dealt with one injury after another since joining the Rockies in 2022. He hasn't played in more than 80 games in a single season and was batting .154 (6-for-39) with no homers and 13 K's before landing on the injured list this year. Bryant is hoping to return at some point this season, but it also wouldn't be a surprise if he's eventually shut down.
