SAN DIEGO — Angels right-hander Ben Joyce will be out for the remainder of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery, the team announced on Wednesday.
The team did not release the nature of the surgery.
Joyce, 24, has dealt with injuries throughout his brief professional career, a natural consequence of throwing a fastball that has reached 105 mph.
Joyce appeared in five games this season, with his velocity dipping during an outing on April 8 in Tampa. Joyce said at the time he didn’t believe he was injured, but a subsequent MRI exam showed inflammation in his shoulder.
Joyce tried to throw twice since then, and each time felt he hadn’t improved, so the Angels sent him to see a specialist this week.
There was no other announcement about what type of surgery was performed. The Angels have made a practice of limiting information on injuries, citing player privacy.
