ESPN is reporting that Phillies second baseman Chase Utley could be out until next June after undergoing hip surgery.
Utley’s OPS dropped from .955 in the first half of ‘08 to .855 after the All-Star Break. The fact that he spent most of the second half injured changes the dropoff from disappointing to remarkable.
Sports Injury guru Will Carroll reports on Utley’s prognosis at Baseball Prospectus.
