David Purcey (elbow) has been shut down for 4-6 weeks. Purcey is dealing with a strain of the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow. He received a second opinion from Dr. James Andrews, who confirmed that he should go the rest and rehab route for now. It's possible he could undergo Tommy John surgery if he fails to make progress.
