Mark Prior’s surgery apparently was a success. Dr Andrew did find a few things and they were reportedly repaired. From the Press release on www.Cubs.com
Mark Prior yesterday underwent successful right shoulder arthroscopy performed by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, AL. During the arthroscopy, Dr. Andrews performed a debridement of Mark’s right rotator cuff as well as repair of labral and capsular injuries in his right shoulder.
He WILL be out for the rest of 2007. At least we know there was actually an injury in there. Hopefully, we’ll see him next year.
