Top Pick to Have TJ Surgery

The Yankees number one pick in this year's amateur draft, Andrew Brackman, will undergo Tommy John surgery. It was thought that surgery would be needed eventually, but it has now been decided that the time is right. Dr. James Andrews will be performing the surgery.

Brackman recently signed a four-year deal worth $4.5 million that includes a $3.3 million signing bonus and could escalate to $13.8 million if incentives are met.
