Bundy was re-examined in Florida by Dr. James Andrews on Wednesday after suffering a setback during his rehab earlier in the week, and he was diagnosed with a partial tear in his elbow ligament. The rehab and recovery timetable is typically around a year, but it varies in each particular case and is a significant blow for an Orioles club that could have used the right-hander at the big league level this season. "It's because of where he was drafted and what our hopes are," Orioles manager Buck Showalter said of the buzz around Bundy's season-ending surgery. "He had some roads to cross, and this might help him some in certain situations. Hopefully, next year this time we'll be putting a date on when he is going to pitch again in a game. And we all know, obviously there are a lot of exceptions, but this is a procedure that has become, unfortunately, pretty commonplace, as Dr. Andrews would say." The fourth overall pick in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft, Bundy -- who netted a $6.25 million signing bonus -- was ranked the No. 2 prospect in baseball by MLB.com entering the season. But he never looked quite right this spring and was optioned to Double-A Bowie early in camp, last throwing off a mound in March. Bundy was shut down when the injury -- originally diagnosed as right flexor mass tightness -- first crept up, and he sought a second opinion from Andrews, who administered a PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injection on April 29 and prescribed six weeks of rest. There were no previous issues in Bundy's rehab until Monday, when he felt discomfort throwing from 120 feet of flat ground at the team's spring facility. That prompted a re-evaluation by team orthopedist John Wilckens and another visit to Andrews, at which point he was diagnosed with the partial tear. Showalter said he was not aware of the injury showing up on previous MRIs. "I just know where we are and where we've got to get, and we'll get there and he'll pitch well for us," Showalter said of Bundy, who flew through the Minors last season and made his big league debut in September. "I think the key where that's concerned is now we've got that behind us. We know what it is. It's nothing he is doing wrong or something he's got to do differently. It's just something that happens. Pretty normal. And we're going to fix it. "I think if anybody knows Dylan, he'll be very diligent with his rehab. If anything, we'll have to watch him being too diligent. That's a big part of it. If you are willing to go through the rehab … where he's concerned, whether he wants to pitch for us or not. And he does." Bundy, selected out of Owasso (Okla.) High School, went 9-3 with a 2.08 ERA in 23 combined starts between two levels of Class A and Double-A before being promoted to the big league club in September. He appeared in relief for the Orioles during the final month of the regular season and was -- if healthy -- considered an option for the Orioles again this year. -- 我的Grenoble日記 http://www.upsaid.com/hao27/ Lucifer's Gaze http://www.flickr.com/photos/hao27 Lucifer's Playground http://hao-27.blogspot.com 他的靈魂已經接近了許多死者棲息的地域。他對他們反覆無常飄飄呼呼的存在，意識到了，卻不能理解。他自己的身子正在向一個灰色的不可捉摸的世界隱去； -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.228.122.236
