CHICAGO _ Ryan Westmoreland had successful surgery last Tuesday to repair a
broken collarbone.
The 19-year-old outfielder for the Single-A Lowell Spinners suffered the
injury when he slammed into the left-field wall after making a dramatic catch
at LeLacheur Park on Aug. 28 in Lowell. He had a plate and screws inserted
during the procedure performed by Red Sox team physician Thomas Gill at
Massachusetts General Hospital.
The Portsmouth native will be out of commission for six weeks and will begin
his rehab in October at the organization's Player Development Complex in Fort
Myers, Fla. According to Red Sox director of player development, Mike Hazen,
Westmoreland should be ready to hit in January.
Originally selected by the Red Sox as the 172nd overall pick in the 2008
draft, Westmoreland hit .296 with 15 doubles, 3 triples, 7 homers, 35 RBI, 19
stolen bases and a .401 on-base percentage in 60 games for the Spinners in
his first professional season.
