    Rusty Greer has MORE Surgery

    Texas Rangers OF Rusty Greer had yet, another operation, this time to remove scar tissue from his surgically repaired elbow, the scar tissue was building up around a nerve in the elbow,
    Greer, who is not expected to be able to play before the 2005 season, has not played a single game since august 2002, may not be able to return at all,
    Greer, 35, since going on the Disabled List in '02, has had surgery to fuse two vertabrae in his neck, rotater cuff surgery and ligament transplant surgery, this latest operation comes seven months after the ligament operation,
    Greer is a career .305 hitter over 9 seasons, all with the Rangers, drove in 100+ Runs in 1996 1998 and 1999, the Rangers won the Western Division title each of those three seasons,
    Greer is in the final year of a three year contract, the Rangers hold a club option for 2005, and it is probably unlikely that they will exercise that option.

    I liked him as a player. A pretty tough guy and well the name is also such a BEISBOL type of name but sheesh I don't think he'll ever come back. I think he should just hang em up. A shame really as he had a pretty darn good career going for him.

          but he's still collecting big money on that guaranteed contract.

                he's going to try to play one more time. If he doesn't get cleared up by 05 and it looks like he'll need more rehab, he'll retire, plus texas won't sign him again. He's already signed his last contract in my opinion.
