Buster Posey Likely to Have Season-Ending Surgery on Hip Injury

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey may miss the rest of the season.

According to John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle, Posey "faces likely hip surgery that would cut short his season."

Manager Bruce Bochy revealed there have been discussions about the surgery when he said, "I'll be honest with you. We have discussed that. We talked about it. Nothing's been determined yet. Because we want him ready for next year. We're discussing that now."

Giants executive vice president of baseball operations Brian Sabean said, "I'd say that that's a safe assumption," when asked about the surgery happening soon.
