During the All-Star Break, St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn stunned fans by saying he's been fighting a knee injury that had been hampering him for several weeks. Winn said that his knee was "jacked up" and "not okay" in an interview with FanDuel Sports Midwest back in July.
As a result of Winn's knee problems, he opted to call his season quits with about a month to go. Winn underwent surgery on a torn meniscus on September 25th, and the surgery was a success and went as expected. Thus began Winn's long road to recovery, one that many fans thought would take until Opening Day for him to fully recover.
