Yeah, no, he's going to have surgery with Dr. Meister.

I don't think we're going to reveal the exact day, but he's going to travel there and have surgery.

What type of surgery?

Is it just the brace, or is he going to do both?

I think they go in there and they figure it out.

Yeah, best case from a recovery standpoint is just the brace, but that's always unclear.

If they go in and make repairs, then it'll...

probably add three months or so to the recovery.

I know it goes without saying, but just how much you feel for Cade in this situation.

Yeah.

No, I really do feel for him a lot.

I mean, I think he'd done everything possible.

I think we had done everything possible.

I think we were unbelievably conservative with him.

He really, even since we drafted him and, and how hard he had, uh, he had worked, um, and how hard we had, uh, worked, uh, to get him to this point.

He looked, he looked fantastic.

And,

these things happen, you know, as part of a baseball season.

And I feel terrible for him.

I know he'll come back strong and good, but I'm just a little solace to him right now, given like the way he was throwing and the condition he was in.
