Westbrook Has Successful Arthroscopic Surgery on Hip
The Indians today announced that JAKE WESTBROOK underwent successful right hip arthroscopic surgery in Nashville, TN. Dr. Thomas Byrd performed the surgery. Westbrook will be on crutches for 4 weeks before he can resume his normal strength and conditioning program. The surgery will not affect his return to throw program as Westbrook is scheduled to begin throwing off flat ground around Thanksgiving time.
