Indians All-Star center fielder Grady Sizemore
has begun light workouts and expects to be fully ready for spring
training.
Sizemore had arthroscopic surgery on his left elbow in early
September and a week later had surgery to repair a sports hernia.
He injured his abdomen during a drill in spring training, then went
on the disabled list May 31 due to inflammation in his elbow. After
returning June 23, he played better but still had discomfort and
was shut down for good on Sept. 4.
Sizemore hit .248 average in 106 games, a big drop from the
previous four seasons, when he averaged .281.
Sizemore lives in Arizona and said Wednesday he likely will be
at the Indians' training complex in Goodyear "just about every
day" during the offseason.
