Texas Rangers right-hander Max Scherzer will be sidelined until midseason after undergoing surgery for a herniated disk Thursday, according to the team.
General manager Chris Young said Friday that Scherzer, who was removed from the roster during the World Series because of back discomfort, had surgery Thursday after injections and other less-invasive treatments didn't relieve the pain. Young said the team is hopeful that the three-time Cy Young Award winner will be fully healed and recovered by June or July.
