BREAKING: Phillies superstar slugger BryceHarper3 will require surgery to stabilize his broken left thumb, multiple NBCSPhilly sources say. The surgery is not expected to be season-ending.
There is no official timetable for Harper's recovery, but six weeks was an estimate given by one person with knowledge of the situation.
Healing rates vary from person to person so that timetable could shrink or grow, depending on Harper's recovery.Even after he recovers from the injury, Harper will need practice time in the batter's box to regain his timing and his stroke. Having a healthy Harper back in the middle of the lineup by Sept. 1 would seem to be a win for the club.
