Royals Reliever To Consider Options
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) _ Kansas City Royals closer Joakim Soria
will take a few days to consider his options after receiving a
second opinion on his elbow injury.
The club said Wednesday he had damage to the ulnar collateral
ligament in his right elbow. Soria had reconstructive elbow surgery
in 2003 to replace the same ligament. He was examined Tuesday by
Dr. Lewis Yocum in Los Angeles.
Soria, a two-time All-Star, has 160 career saves, including a
career-high 43 in 2010. Even if the 27-year-old Soria chooses not
to have surgery, he would likely miss three months.
Manager Ned Yost says Jonathan Broxton, Greg Holland and Aaron
Crow are candidates to close games.
