Yeah, there should be some passion. This doesn't have to be boring. Welcome to Baseball Isn't Boring. Here's your host, Rob Ratner. That was what we call this kind of best case scenario. Do you agree with that? Yeah, definitely best case scenario.
Romy Gonzalez 0:28
Yeah, just a little cleanup procedure. labrum was intact. So yeah, definitely best case. Did they give you certain options and you chose this to clean up or did they just recommend that? Yeah, we didn't know until, you know, Dr. Dugas cut me open. Just once he saw the shoulder and saw everything was pretty much intact. There was a little irritation, you know, around the bursa and labrum from what I remember. And yeah, he just cleaned it up. But yeah, this is great, great news. So you went in for surgery, not knowing what surgery, and then woke up and they told you, not that bad? Yeah, I looked down on my sling and I didn't have the big bulky one. So I'm like, I think I got the cleanup procedure done.

What did the doctors find during Romy's shoulder surgery?

Romy Gonzalez 1:50
Such a minimal procedure is just huge. Do you already feel any relief, or is it still kind of inflamed a little? No, it's definitely a little sore from the surgery still, but just being able to just walk around and have a sling on is great. I've been sleeping great the past two days, so it's been great. Do you feel good about being able to help this team at some point this year?
