[over the mountain]

none of the articles give an indication of when each player's expected return is.

carriker being out indefinitely doesnt sound good. a 3rd surgery to repair a torn tendon doesnt sound good. i wonder how much tendon he actually has left to try and re-attach since it is apparently not holding.

i know with acl repairs the dr either takes ligament/tendon (whatever it is) from the patient's foot (hamstring?) to surgical attach in the knee or they can use a synthetic tendon/ligament material.

ive never heard of a synthetic tendon/ligament material being used for a torn bicep or labrum (wilson) but i imagine it is very similar to an acl repair.
