Mike Napoli: Undergoes surgery on hand

Napoli underwent surgery on a torn ligament in his right hand earlier this week, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

This was an injury Napoli played through in 2017, during which he slashed .193/.285/.428 with 29 home runs and 66 RBI for the Rangers. The 36-year-old was also bothered by an ankle ailment that caused him to miss the final few weeks of the year. He is currently still on the free-agent market, but should be fully healthy by the time spring training rolls around.
