Cardinals' Yadier Molina to Undergo Knee Surgery; Will Be Ready for 2019 Season

St. Louis Cardinals star Yadier Molina will undergo knee surgery, according to Primera Hora's Fernando Ribas Reyes (h/t St. Louis Baseball Weekly's Brian Stull).

Molina's agent Melvin Roman, per Ribas Reyes, described the procedure as "something simple." Molina is expected to be ready for the 2019 season, as he will reportedly be able to return to action in two weeks.

This is not the first time this season the 15-year vet has had to deal with an injury. He missed 27 games after needing emergency surgery for a pelvic injury with traumatic hematoma in May.
