[情報] Marquis will have elbow surgery Friday

[mohicans (Last Of The Mohicans)]

A day after a rehab start for Class A Potomac, Nationals right-hander Jason
Marquis announced that he was not pain-free and will have surgery to remove
spurs and bone chips in his right elbow.

Marquis will have the surgery Friday in Cincinnati. Dr. Tim Kremchek will
perform the procedure.

Once he has the surgery, Marquis is expected  to be back on the mound
sometime in August. Marquis said when he woke up Wednesday morning, he
realized that his elbow was in pain and had locked up on him.

"We have to see where we go from here and talk it over with the team, my
agent and my family -- see what the best plan is," he said. "I let my
teammates down, but they are doing a great job. We have a lot of quality guys
in here. Hopefully I could come back in August and contribute."

Marquis signed a two-year, $15 million deal with the Washington this past
offseason. He got off to a slow start, allowing 19 earned runs in 8 1/3
innings. The Nats began to believe that something was wrong with Marquis on
April 18, when he didn't record an out and allowed seven earned runs against
the Brewers.

A few days later, Marquis had an MRI and it was revealed that he had bone
chips and spurs in the elbow. Marquis tried to avoid surgery. He was able to
play catch and have bullpen sessions without any problems.

"It was an agreement between the player and us," general manager Mike Rizzo
said. "He felt that he could pitch through it. He felt these things before
and has pitch through it. We wanted to do what was best for the player. It
was a mutual decision to try to let him pitch through it. It didn't work, so
it set us back for about three weeks.

Marquis acknowledged that he didn't feel comfortable in his rehab start for
Potomac on Tuesday. He allowed three runs in 3 2/3 innings in an 8-5 loss to
Winston-Salem. Marquis threw 54 pitches, 36 for strikes. His fastball was
clocked at 88 mph, which concerned the team.

"It was cold; it was tough to stay loose," Marquis said. "So I thought it was
-- maybe more than anything -- why the elbow was a little stiff. I tried to
stay warm and do everything that I could. Now realizing what my arm feels
like this morning, if it was 85 degrees and sunny, I think it would probably
be the same thing."
