Braves' Rodriguez to have shoulder surgery, may miss season (Yahoo Sports)

Braves general manager John Coppolella said Monday he isn't sure whether it is realistic to hope for a return this season of infielder Sean Rodriguez, who will have shoulder surgery. Rodriguez, who agreed to an $11.5 million, two-year contract with Atlanta in November, hurt his shoulder when a vehicle he was driving was rammed by a stolen police car in Miami on Jan. 28. Rodriguez's shoulder injury was not immediately disclosed.
