Player Notes
May 24, 2008
John Rheinecker had cleanup surgery on his shoulder Saturday, according to MLB.com. The lefty had already been ruled out until after the All-Star break after being affected by thoracic outlet syndrome on his shoulder. This surgery was considered minor and won't affect his return date.

John Rheinecker is expected to miss at least the first half of the upcoming season, according to the Dallas Morning News. Rheinecker has been diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, a condition that limits blood flow to the extremities, and the same problem that cost Hank Blalock most of last season. Just like Blalock, Rheinecker is expected to undergo surgery to remove a rib, which should allow for better blood flow.

John Rheinecker has been shut down after telling the staff of swelling and tingling in his left arm according to the official team website. Rhino has been sent back to Dallas for further examination. Rheinecker came to camp with a shot at being the third left-hander in the bullpen behind C.J. Wilson and Eddie Guardado.
