BALTIMORE -- Richard Bleier, one of the few bright spots in the Orioles' 2018 campaign, told reporters prior to Saturday's game against the Marlins that he will undergo surgery to repair a Grade 3 tear in his left lat. Bleier will be out for the remainder of the season, with the goal of rehabbing to be ready in time for next Spring Training.
After undergoing surgery on Tuesday in New Jersey, Bleier will head down to the Orioles' facility in Sarasota, Fla., to begin rehab. Bleier said he has not yet received a firm timetable, but it should come after the operation.
