I saw on the Mercury News Online today:
Barry Bonds had a third operation on his injured right knee, the latest setback in his rehabilitation, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Bonds underwent arthroscopic surgery Monday in Southern California as doctors tried to clean out an infection, the Chronicle reported on its Web site Tuesday night. The Giants left fielder already had operations on the knee Jan. 31 and March 17 to remove damaged cartilage.
The Giants have stopped giving medical updates on Bonds, and his agent would not confirm that Bonds had the operation.
The Chronicle, which did not cite the source of its report, said the knee was infected and the latest operation flushed out the infection using fluids and antibiotics. The paper said Bonds would take antibiotics for at least two weeks and could not resume his rehab until doctors are assured the infection is gone.
So it is a good think that Alou is back in the line-up and productive because they may be without Bonds for much longer
