AI Summary
Blake Snell underwent NanoScope surgery to remove three bone spurs from his left elbow. The minimally invasive procedure is expected to expedite his return, with early estimates suggesting a return in approximately two months.
Snell underwent the innovative surgical procedure, which is less invasive and uses a smaller incision than a typical arthroscopic surgery, that Tigers ace Tarik Skubal also underwent earlier this month. The hope is that it'll expedite his return to Los Angeles' rotation. The 33-year-old southpaw remains without a definitive return timetable yet, but early estimates give him a decent shot at making it back in roughly two months. Fantasy managers shouldn't anticipate him returning until after the All-Star break in July.
