Padres' Tyson Ross could need surgery on shoulder

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Tyson Ross could need surgery to repair his injured right shoulder.

What It Means:

Ross was limited to just one start in 2016 (April 4) because of an ongoing shoulder injury that he has failed to find a remedy for, despite various efforts and multiple opinions of medical professionals.

The 29-year-old right-hander had a 3.07 ERA and 526 strikeouts in 516 2/3 innings between 2013-2015. He was coming off an impressive 2015 campaign, posting a 3.15 xFIP and a 25.8 strikeout percentage (11th-best) in 196 innings pitched.
