Cabrera and C. Perez have minor surgery.
(AP)—Indians shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera(notes) and reliever Chris Perez(notes) have undergone surgical procedures since the season ended.
The team said Cabrera had an arthroscopic operation on his right elbow. He will begin therapy immediately and will remain in Cleveland for at least the next month. Cabrera batted .308 with six homers and 68 RBIs in 131 games this season.
Perez had a loose bone and cyst removed from the back of his ankle. He will begin his normal offseason strength and conditioning program in December. He was 0-1 with a 4.32 ERA in 32 games after coming over in a trade from St. Louis.

The shortstop has “minor” surgery on his elbow. Not to worry, just a trifle. First I’ve heard of him having arm issues. It was kept a secret, no doubt, because if opposing batters knew he had a sore wing they’d run harder to first in the hope of making it.

They had future ticket sales in mind?

Minor surgery is the surgery you’re having. Major surgery is the surgery I’m havin’.
