Player Notes
November 26, 2008
Dustin McGowan underwent shoulder surgery four months ago and is now about to start throwing again, according to the Blue Jays official web site. "I've got a big itch right now to start throwing," McGowan said. "It's driving me crazy every day."

Our View:McGowan started only 19 games in 2008 and had a record of 6-7. The starter will be ready to go in spring training and should be ready to go when the 2009 season begins.
July 31, 2008
Dustin McGowan underwent surgery on the frayed labrum in his right shoulder, and the news was positive as additional work was not needed, meaning he should be ready for Spring Training, according to MLB.com.

Our View:McGowan had average numbers - a 6-7 record and 4.37 ERA, but was useful in AL-only leagues. He should be good to go next season.
July 26, 2008
Blue Jays RHP Dustin McGowan will have season-ending surgery Thursday to repair fraying of the labrum in his shoulder, according to CBSSports.com.

Our View:McGowan, who is 6-7 with a 4.37 ERA in 19 starts, has not pitched since leaving a July 8 game against Baltimore after four innings, saying that the ongoing pain had become too much to bear. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list the next day. Last September, an MRI revealed McGowan had a partial tear in his rotator cuff. Tests done this month revealed no further damage, but Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi said Saturday doctors will take a closer look when they operate on McGowan.
July 15, 2008
Dustin McGowan will not have to undergo surgery on his right shoulder after an MRI revealed that there was no new damage to his arm, according to BlueJays.com.

Our View:McGowan will start a rehab program soon, but there is no timetable for his return, so it may be a while before you get him back on your fantasy squad.
July 10, 2008
Dustin McGowan has a torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder and will miss a minimum of four weeks, according to the Associated Press. "Right now, we're probably looking at longer than four weeks," said Blue Jays GM J.P. Ricciardi.

Our View:McGowan had fantasy value in deep AL-only leagues, with a respectable 4.37 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. Torn rotator cuffs are serious injuries, so expecting him back this season may be wishful thinking.
