應該沒OP Adam Miller又掛了感覺現在笑臉人真的是很不順 http://tinyurl.com/5jlkh6 The fickle finger of fate keeps hounding Adam Miller. Miller, the Tribe's top pitching prospect at the start of the season, Tuesday underwent surgery on the middle finger of his right hand to re-attach the flexor tendon to the bone. Baltimore hand specialist Dr. Thomas Graham performed the surgery. Lonnie Soloff, Indians head athletic trainer, said Miller will be out for eight weeks. He can then resume a throwing program, which essentially will take him to the end of the minor league season at Class AAA Buffalo. Miller, who missed all of spring training with the big-league club because of a callous on the same finger, originally injured the tendon last year. He injured it once during the season and once again in the Arizona Fall League. This year Miller was pitching well for Buffalo, but the unattached tendon in the finger caused a fistula to develop on the second crease of the underside of the finger between two callouses. Soloff said Dr. Graham determined that the fistula, a hole in the skin, which could lead to infection, would not close if the tendon wasn't re-attached to the bone. "It's a challenging injury and a challenging procedure to perform," said Soloff, who showed reporters pictures of the actual surgery. Miller was 0-1 with a 1.88 ERA in six starts. He struck out 20, walked 12 and allowed 26 hits in 28 2/3 innings. Last year Miller pitched only 85 1/3 innings because of finger and elbow problems. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.5.3
