Dateline: Cincinnati
Blake Dunn's right elbow was examined by Dr. Keith Meister and he will have surgery on Monday.
"They won't know what the surgery is until get in there, whether it's an internal brace or if they have to do the full "Tommy John" it will leak into next year," Terry Francona said.
Dunn was placed on the injured list on June 28 after he felt elbow discomfort in the elbow trying to make a throw on a sacrifice fly.
Brandon Williamson, who has been out since April 30 with left shoulder fatigue will pitch Saturday for Chattanooga at Birmingham on Saturday. He will be re evaluated then moved to Triple A Louisville.
Nick Lodolo will pitch possibly three ups and downs or maybe two on Friday (073126) to live hitters.
"He has a new grip on his breaking ball but we won't have him throw it each up and down," Frnacona said. "The other two will be fastball, changeup. We're trying to build him and not hurt him."
