Barry Bonds Has Knee Surgery

They claim it's minor, but dontcha know they said Robb Nen would be back by now.
SAN FRANCISCO -- Giants slugger Barry Bonds underwent arthroscopic debridement surgery on his left knee Tuesday morning and is expected to be at full strength by Spring Training.

The 20-minute procedure, which was performed by Dr. Art Ting at the Fremont Surgery Center, was a minor arthritis cleanup. The six-time MVP felt discomfort on Monday, Oct. 4, the day after the Giants concluded their season, and did not want his knee to interfere with his offseason conditioning program.


Comments:
IF(and that's a big IF), Barroids only had debridement surgery, he'll be up and walking on his leg in just a couple days, and can start his offseason training in a couple weeks.

I've had this surgery 4 different times on my right knee, and while I'm not a professional baseball player, I was in the military, and if I can do it, so can he. I actually put off my latest surgery- in case the Angels made it further into the postseason- until November, at which point #5 will be done, and I'll be ready to go by turkey day.
