FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Troy Patton will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, delaying the left-hander's debut with the Baltimore Orioles until at least 2009.
Obtained in the December trade that sent Miguel Tejada to the Houston Astros, Patton arrived at spring training camp with a sore shoulder and never got to pitch in an exhibition game. He halted a side session on Sunday after 10 pitches, and an arthrogram in Baltimore on Wednesday revealed a torn labrum.
''We decided we're going to get surgery. I'm going to go to Dr. (Lewis) Yocum in L.A.,'' Patton said Friday. ''We're going to call him and try to set up something next week.''

Here's one trade that won't work out this season. Hope all goes well for Patton after the surgery.
