Jim Street, of MLB.com, reports Seattle Mariners SS Carlos Triunfel (ankle) underwent surgery on his left ankle and leg Wednesday, April 15, and will be out for at least four months. He will begin his rehab in roughly two days.
Our instinct: The bad news here of course is that Triunfel loses a year of growth. The bright side is that he just turned 19 and is well ahead of other players his age. Whether he stays at SS, or gets moved to 3B (or the outfield) remains to be seen. All indications is that he will make a full recovery and be ready next season.
