Highly-touted but rarely seen LSU pitcher Nick Storz underwent surgery on the lat muscle underneath his throwing shoulder last week and could miss the entire 2019 season.
Paul Mainieri said LSU will know more about his potential return in a few weeks.
Storz came to LSU with no shortage of hype. but he had surgery on a bone spur in his throwing shoulder last fall, then only pitched twice in the 2018 season for what was eventually discovered to be a lat tear.
He underwent a non-invasive PRP procedure in June and was expected to be ready for this fall until suffering another set back just before September practices started, leading to surgery.
