Jordan Westburg Considering Season-Ending Elbow Surgery?
Baltimore Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said that infielder Jordan Westburg (elbow) met with Dr. Neal ElAttrache on Monday, according to Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. Westburg is still in talks with his support team, including doctors and agent Scott Boras, about his next steps. "They're going through the options, next steps, what he wants to do," Albernaz said. The 27-year-old has not played at all this year due to a partially torn UCL in his right elbow, and it sounds as though Westburg and his representatives are deciding on whether he should undergo what would be season-ending surgery. Westburg recently had a setback, which prompted his visit with ElAttrache. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues have run out of patience, and rightfully so, as he's currently rostered in just 16% of Yahoo leagues. Coby Mayo has been a big beneficiary of Westburg's injury as far as playing time at third base, but he's hitting only .162 (17-for-105) on the year and is losing at-bats to Weston Wilson of late at the hot corner.
