Twins closer Glen Perkins hasn't been healthy all season, and he won't be back this year. He revealed last week that he'll have season-ending surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. His rotator cuff will be examined during the procedure as well.

On Wednesday, Perkins issued the following statement on Twitter:

Tomorrow at 1 PST, I am having shoulder surgery that will most likely affect the rest of my career in some capacity.
