Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto will undergo surgery Friday to "clean up" the meniscus in his right knee, according to manager Gabe Kapler, who said there are no long-term concerns.
Realmuto has not played since a 10-1 loss to Cleveland on Sept. 22 and had an MRI done on his knee Monday night.
"It would pop, just a little discomfort," Realmuto told reporters about when he noticed the injury against Cleveland. "It wasn't really painful [Sunday], but I woke up [Monday] and it was a little more tender, a little more pain.
