Jul 23 OF Wily Mo Pena had surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff and fraying of his left labrum. The procedure will sideline him for three to four months, ending his season, but club officials believe he'll be ready for the start of spring training.

Jul 22 Pena has had surgery on his left shoulder and will miss the remainder of the season.

Advice: The team says the surgery was performed Tuesday in Cincinnati to repair a partial tear of Pena's rotator cuff and a tear of his labrum. Pena, who batted .205 with two home runs and 10 RBIs, had been on the 15-day disabled list since July 18. The shoulder will be placed in a sling for three weeks before Pena begins rehabilitation. He's expected to be ready for next season's spring training.
