Philadelphia Phillies right-handed pitcher Zack Wheeler will officially miss the rest of the season with venous thoracic outlet syndrome, the team announced Saturday.
Wheeler has been recommended to undergo thoracic outlet decompression surgery, which generally has a 6-8 month recovery timeline, per the Phillies' release.
The NL Cy Young candidate landed on the injured list last weekend. On Monday, he had a successful thrombolysis procedure to remove a blood clot near his right shoulder.
He then had a follow-up evaluation and received second opinions this week, according to the team.
Wheeler initially reported discomfort after an Aug. 15 start, a five-inning outing against the Washington Nationals. After feeling an abnormal heaviness in his shoulder, he received evaluations the following day. That's when his blood clot, officially in his "right upper extremity," was discovered.
