Ryan Braun

Brewers' Ryan Braun expected to undergo back surgery Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun will have another MRI exam on his back on Wednesday and is expected to have his surgery on Thursday.

What It Means:

The procedure is expected to require a one-month recovery, which shouldn't impact his regular offseason routine.

Braun had a nice bounceback season in 2015, slashing .285/.356/.498 with 25 homers, 84 RBI and 24 stolen bases in 140 games.
