Stephen Strasburg / Nationals | Strasburg suffers dislocated kneecap

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 4:00:03 EDT

The Washington Post's Dave Sheinin, updating a previous item, is reporting Washington Nationals SP prospect Stephen Strasburg (knee), who was injured Thursday, Nov. 19, prior to an Arizona Fall League game, has a dislocated kneecap. The news means the 21-year-old right-hander will avoid surgery and should have no trouble being ready for spring training in February. "It was the best result that we could have hoped for," general manager Mike Rizzo said. "It's something where he just has to rest and follow a physical therapy regimen to strengthen all the ligaments around his knee. We think we dodged a bullet."
