[外電]Matuella To Undergo Tommy John Surgery

Top draft prospect Michael Matuella, a Duke University righty, has torn his
ulnar collateral ligament and will undergo Tommy John surgery, Keith Law of
ESPN.com reports on Twitter. He had been tabbed as a possible first overall
pick.
Matuella joins last year’s number one choice, Brady Aiken, as premium
amateur arms requiring UCL replacements this offseason. The news has put a
significant damper on a draft class that was already receiving
less-than-stellar reviews.
Of course, we have seen some added willingness on the part of teams to take
risks on players coming off of a TJ procedure. As Baseball America’s J.J.
Cooper notes, last year’s draft included two prominent first-round choices
who received big bonuses despite the surgery: Jeff Hoffman, who went 9th
overall to the Blue Jays, and Erick Fedde, who went at 18 to the Nationals.
And we have seen significant guarantees given to still-rehabbing pitchers,
with the Royals along inking Luke Hochevar and Kris Medlen.
But there is little doubt that the added risk will have an impact on the
earning capacity of Matuella. Cooper does note on Twitter that at least some
clubs actually have greater long-term concern with back issues for the
right-hander. BA’s John Manuel and Hudson Belinsky further discussed
Matuella’s draft status in an interesting piece.

今年選秀最好的投手原本肯定是前三順位的 Michael Matuella要開TJ了
他的身材條件(6呎7寸 220磅) 素質都很棒
(速球可以標93~97Mile Plus 曲球 平均以上的滑球 控球也OK)
