Hoey's season done after surgery: Jim Hoey, who pitched in 23 games for Baltimore last year, will miss the rest of the season following shoulder surgery. "He's another power arm in this organization. He's still young enough. Get it taken care of and let's get him ready for next year," manager Dave Trembley said Wednesday. "It's unfortunate that it happened, but I'm sure it's a lot better for Jim. With the way the procedures are now, they're telling me he'll be better." (Updated 05/14/2008).
Injury Report
Biceps - 15-day DL. Out for the season (Updated - 5/14/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Hoey had shoulder inflammation during spring training after going 1-0 with a 6.00 ERA in three appearances. The right-hander had difficulty getting loose before pitching, a problem that continued after he was sent to the team's minor league camp in late March. He was operated on May 4. Hoey is nothing more than an AL-only Fantasy middle reliever when healthy. Cut him in all Fantasy formats. (Updated 05/14/2008).
