Guardians' Prospect Chase DeLauter Undergoes Core Muscle Surgery

The Cleveland Guardians have announced that outfield prospect Chase DeLauter underwent surgery this morning to address a core muscle injury, often referred to as a sports hernia. The team stated that similar injuries typically require about eight to twelve weeks for players to return to play. This timeline means DeLauter will be sidelined for a significant portion of the early season, delaying his much-anticipated contributions to the team.
​
Despite the setback, the Guardians remain optimistic about DeLauter's recovery and future impact on the field. DeLauter, a promising talent in the Guardians' farm system, has shown great potential and is expected to be an integral part of the team's future. As he focuses on his rehabilitation, the organization and fans alike are eager to see him back in action, contributing to the Guardians' success.
