Wednesday, October 14, 2009
News: LaPorta had arthroscopic hip surgery in Vail, Colo., on Wednesday and will be out four to six months, the Indians' official site reports. He also had surgery on his toe.
Analysis: LaPorta won't be ready for the start of spring training, most likely. The surgery was a debridement of a bony impingement in his hip joint. He played through a lingering hip injury toward the end of the year.
Sunday, September 27, 2009
News: LaPorta (hip) is back in the lineup on Sunday against the Orioles, MASN Sports reports.
Analysis: It's worth noting that Laporta is back in left field rather than occupying the DH spot. Barring a setback, he should be a decent option down the stretch. Since being recalled in the second half of the season, LaPorta is hitting .302 with five homers and 14 RBI in 116 at-bats.
