[新聞] Yankees expect Rivera to be fine come spring
http://tinyurl.com/3myxoj
Mariano Rivera's shoulder surgery yesterday went according to plan, and the
Yankees expect him to be in the bullpen on Opening Day.
"There isn't any reason to think he won't be ready for the season," general
manager Brian Cashman said by phone.
Rivera underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right shoulder to remove
calcification over the AC joint. The surgery was performed by Dr. David
Altchek at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan. Rivera should be
cleared to begin throwing in about three months.
Rivera typically doesn't need long to prepare for the season. He throws
minimally in the offseason, not beginning until sometime in January, and
enters spring training on a schedule a couple weeks behind most other
pitchers. He prepares quickly, though, and usually needs around 10 innings of
work in spring training.
"I suspect he'll get a little extra tender loving care this spring training,"
Cashman said. "I expect he'll come into spring training as a rehab player
because of this, and fully expect him to be ready for the season."
Cashman did not seem overly concerned. It was good news that nothing more
than a scope was necessary once Altchek began the operation.
Rivera had one of the best seasons of his career. The 38-year-old closer
posted a 1.40 ERA in 64 outings and 70 2/3 innings, converting 39 of 40 save
opportunities. He had an outstanding WHIP (walks plus hits per inning
pitched) of 0.665. This was his first year of a three-year, $45-million
contract.
