MESA, Ariz. – Facing a fourth major surgery on his throwing elbow, A’s right-hander Jarrod Parker said Monday he has every intention of working his way back and trying to resume his career.
Addressing the media for the first time since suffering a second fracture of his elbow, Parker spoke quietly to the group of reporters huddled around him in the home dugout at Hohokam Stadium. He didn’t pretend to know all the answers about what exactly will be done during his April 1 surgery, or how the procedure might impact his road ahead.
