Detroit Tigers Second Baseman Scott Sizemore Undergoes Surgery

 MLN Newswire - www.mlntherawfeed.com-DETROIT – The Detroit Tigers announced second baseman Scott Sizemore underwent surgery today on his left ankle for his fractured fibula and the associated instability, a procedure performed by Dr. Stephen Lemos at the Detroit Medical Center. 

 Screws were inserted to stabilize his ankle joint and he has been placed in a splint for the next two weeks.  At the end of the two-week period in the splint, Sizemore will wear a cam boot.  Sizemore will have the screws removed in January and at that time he will be able to begin full weight-bearing activities.

 According to the projected timetable, Sizemore is expected to be ready for the start of Spring Training in February.

 He suffered the injury turning a double play pivot in an Arizona Fall League game on October 22.
