Newsbreakers
October 7, 2008
Yankees closer Mariano Rivera will have right shoulder surgery Tuesday, according to the New York Post.

Our View:The surgery is going to be performed by noted shoulder guru Dr. David Altchek. He will remove calcification from the top of the future Hall of Famer's shoulder.
October 3, 2008
Yankees closer Mariano Rivera will have surgery on his right shoulder on Tuesday to repair calcification on the AC joint, according to Yankees.com.

Our View:Rivera is expected to be ready to pitch in spring training, but shoulder injuries can be tricky to deal with. That said, he did pitch most of the season with the pain, and was as dominant as ever, sporting a 0.67 WHIP.
September 29, 2008
Mariano Rivera will have off-season surgery on his ailing right shoulder but should be ready to throw by spring training, according to the AP.

Our View:The procedure will shave down calcification of the A.C. joint on the top of Rivera’s shoulder. The surgery hasn’t been scheduled, but manager Joe Girardi said it doesn’t appear to be a serious injury and there is no structural damage. The date for the surgery and where it will be performed should be set later this week. The 38-year-old nailed down 39 saves in 2008, with a microscopic 0.67 WHIP.
September 26, 2008
Mariano Rivera's check up with the doctor found some bone spurs in his shoulder, and the initial recommendation is that he undergoes surgery to correct the issue, according to The Journal News. Rivera will seek a second opinion before going under the knife.

Our View:When you are 38 every surgery is major, even if it's just arthroscopic. Add in the fact that this is an issue with his shoulder, usually a bigger concern than an elbow, and we are slightly nervous. Given his tremendous work on the hill this season (1.43 ERA, 0.68 WHIP) it clearly didn't effect his performance, though any future efforts will need to be monitored closely if he has the operation.
September 25, 2008
MLB.com reports that with no chance at a postseason entry, the Yankees permitted Mariano Rivera to leave the club on Thursday to complete his end-of-season physical examination in New York. Yankees manager Joe Girardi said that he had no plans to use the 38-year-old on Wednesday or Thursday after he pitched in four of the club's last five games, including the final inning at Yankee Stadium on Sunday. Girardi said the trip should not be construed as an injury issue.

Our View:If you own Rivera, it's time to find someone else to take his place. Rivera had the lowest WHIP of his career in 2008 at 0.68.
