The Los Angeles Dodgers announced A.J. Pollock underwent successful surgery on Thursday to remove the hardware from his right elbow. Dr. John Itamura performed the operation, which the club said went as expected.
The Dodgers still have not determined a timetable for Pollock’s recovery. Thursday’s surgery was the third he’s had on his right elbow and a result of an infection that developed in the bursa sac.
One year after being selected by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the first round of the 2009 MLB Draft, Pollock fractured his right elbow and spent five months recovering.
