Blue Jays' Santander Out 5-6 Months with Shoulder Surgery

Toronto Blue Jays' Anthony Santander will miss 5-6 months after shoulder surgery for a torn labrum that returned in January when he resumed hitting.

Anthony Santander revealed Wednesday that his shoulder pain returned in January when he resumed hitting after offseason rest. An MRI then confirmed the torn labrum, which was announced on Day 1 of spring training. The 31-year-old slugger missed most of last season rehabbing the same left shoulder, appearing in just 54 regular-season games and five postseason contests.
