Michael Brantley undergoes surgery, will resume full baseball activities in 4-5 months

The Cleveland Indians announced via twitter this morning that Michael Brantley underwent another surgical procedure. They did not accidentally retweet a previous announcement about Brantley having surgery. It is a new one. It is about his ankle.
