Desmond Jennings is scheduled to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his sore left knee Wednesday, which will sideline the Rays outfielder for another 3-4 more weeks, according to TampaBay.com.
"That's very much a best case," Rays Manager Kevin Cash told TampaBay.com. "I don't know if that's very realistic. He just wants to know what's going on. This is the best way to be able to find that."
It’s been a long season for the 28-year-old as he has been out since late April for what was called left knee bursitis. Jennings has only played in 18 games this season. He had 5 SB, 7 BB, 9 SO and a .222 BA in that small sample.
He was a highly touted prospect at one point, yet in six MLB seasons, Jennings has yet to live up to the hype offensively. When healthy, the outfielder provides speed and a run scoring presence for a Rays team that is a surprising 31-27 so far this season.
