Rangers right-hander Chi Chi Gonzalez will get a second opinion on the UCL tear in his right elbow before settling on a course of action.
The Rangers team physician Dr. Keith Meister diagnosed the partial tear Friday and recommends a stem cell injection and a six week no-throw recovery.
That’s what Gonzalez will do if the second doctor agrees with the assessment.
The soreness has bothered Gonzalez during his past three starts going back to a March 4 game against the Brewers.
I’m going to wait for a second opinion just to get that through my mind and see what the next doctor has to say.
