Red Sox LHP Price to have surgery for wrist cyst

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Boston Red Sox left-hander David Price will have surgery Thursday to remove a cyst in his left wrist that ended his season early. The 2012 Cy Young winner is expected to be ready for the start of spring training.

Price, who went 7-5 with a 4.28 ERA in 22 starts this season, last pitched on Sept. 1 and made just two appearances since the end of July.

Boston manager Alex Cora said before Sunday's game at Tampa Bay that Price should have a normal offseason once his recovery from surgery is completed.
