Dotel has decided undergo Tommy John surgery

[Deathscythe (秋天的樹)]

Despite recommendations from four doctors against it, Octavio Dotel has
decided undergo Tommy John surgery.

''Octavio does not feel he can pitch with the level of pain he was pitching
with,'' A's trainer Larry Davis said Thursday. ''Everybody's tolerance level
is different. Octavio feels like he's tried long enough. ... He's been
throwing a long time and is tired of recurrent tendinitis.'' Some will
question his manhood, but with Dotel eligible for free agency at the end of
the season, he could have tried to tough it out for a few more months and
then undergo surgery next year after getting his next contract. Now he'll
have to take an incentive-laden deal this winter. Huston Street should remain
Oakland's closer for the rest of the season. Jun. 2 - 9:23 pm et
