Yankees' Nady to have Tommy John surgery
Baseball Betting Lines
07/02/2009 - Bronx, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Yankees outfielder Xavier Nady will undergo ligament replacement surgery on his right elbow next Wednesday.
The Tommy John surgical procedure will be performed by Dr. Lewis Yocum.
"I'm extremely disappointed for him because I thought we were going to get him back this week," said Yankees manager Joe Girardi. "You feel bad for a guy that really tried and tried to be a team guy. He'll be back and he'll be a good player again, but your heart goes out to him."
The 30-year-old Nady also had Tommy John surgery in 2001.
Acquired by New York last July from the Pirates, Nady hurt the elbow during an April 14 game at Tampa Bay, and the injury was diagnosed as a ligament tear. Surgery was recommended but Nady insisted on rehabbing the injury instead.
