MILWAUKEE (AP) — Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Aaron Ashby will have arthroscopic surgery on his throwing shoulder and could miss the entire season. Brewers manager Craig Counsell announced after Milwaukee’s 7-6 victory over the New York Mets on Tuesday that Ashby would have surgery Friday in Washington. Counsell said fans shouldn’t expect to “see him until late in the season at best.” Counsell said he could have a more specific timeline for Ashby after the operation. Counsell said during spring training that Ashby would miss a couple of months with inflammation in his shoulder. The situation apparently got to the point where surgery was the best option.
