Santana and Perez to have surgery tomorrow

Guess they’re getting the 2-for-1 deal.

From the Mets…

The New York Mets today announced that lefthanded pitchers Johan Santana and Oliver Perez will each undergo surgery tomorrow at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan. Santana will have bone chips removed from his left elbow; Perez will have scar tissue removed from the patella tendon of his left knee. Both procedures will be performed by Mets Medical Director Dr. David Altchek and Mets Team Physician Dr. Struan Coleman.
