Kyle Lohse had surgery last Friday to fix a rare condition in his right forearm. This isn’t news. What is news? We might have a timetable, here.
Lohse Begins His Rehab From Forearm Surgery
“The doctor said six to eight weeks. Who knows, because no one’s ever had it. I’ve heard other people talking about 12 (weeks), but I think that’s a bit much considering they didn’t do anything with the muscle."

Lohse, who is in the second year of a 4-year, $41 million contract, will start physical therapy later this week and hopes to return in six to eight weeks. But that remains to be seen, all thanks to one hit-by-pitch.
It’s important to state, again, that because this is unprecedented in baseball circles, no one’s quite sure how long it’ll be before Lohse can come back. However, the doctors are saying ~2 months, and no one’s better equipped to come up with a good estimate.
