SAN FRANCISCO–The last person a pitcher wants to see is Dr. James Andrews.
But that’s exactly who Giants right-hander Johnny Cueto could be paying a visit to on the team’s upcoming road trip.
One of the most high-profile orthopedic surgeons in the country, Andrews is a specialist who has operated on dozens of Major League Baseball players.
The Giants are hopeful Cueto is not the next.
San Francisco placed the National League ERA leader on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday with right elbow inflammation and manager Bruce Bochy said Wednesday the team isn’t ready to rule out a possible UCL injury.
