Jason Vargas To Have Surgery Tuesday
7 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Jason Vargas (hand) will have surgery on Tuesday to fix a fractured bone in his right (non-throwing) hand. However, he'll resume throwing five days after the procedure, but he'll likely miss the start of the regular season. The veteran left-handed probably won't miss many starts in the first month of the season, but he's a bad mixed league option. Vargas doesn't strike out many and relies on contact to get outs. He'll likely be more of the pitcher he was in the second half last year with the Royals than in the first half, which is not good.
