Chatham Ironmen prospect has surgery

Bad news from Ironmen camp yesterday, as righthanded reliever J. Brent Cox went down with an elbow injury that required surgery. The extent of the injury and subsequent surgery are not known, but a source from the club said that it was not Tommy John surgery. “We’re not really certain on a timetable for return as of now,” the source said. “But no—it was not Tommy John.”
