After a brief moment of Blake Treinen deciding whether he wanted to do surgery or not, and after being told surgery is an option, Treinen decided to go through with surgery on his shoulder. The injury that lingered all season long kept him to just five games and Treinen will have about a 10 month timetable for a full recovery.
Treinen just adds to the list of Dodgers pitchers who were injured at some point in the season and to avoid another unit collapse the option for surgery seemed like the best way to go. If all goes well, Treinen should be ready about a month prior to the start of the postseason and should be able to get up to speed in time to play.
