Fernando Tatis Jr. News
San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. had a successful surgery Tuesday to repair the labrum in his left shoulder, per San Diego-Union Tribune's Kevin Acee. The procedure was performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles. The 23-year-old should have plenty of time to heal before the start of the 2023 season, although he will need to finish his 80-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. Tatis was a huge fantasy bust this season after first fracturing his wrist in an off-season motorcycle accident, then receiving the suspension. That being said, he will remain a top fantasy option once he returns.
San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr.'s shoulder surgery is being postponed due to a non-COVID-19-related illness involving strep throat and a fever. The Padres will provide an update when the surgery is rescheduled. Tatis was scheduled to go under the knife after MLB handed him an 80-game suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. It remains to be seen how long the 23-year-old's surgery will be delayed, but he should still have plenty of time to be ready for the start of the 2023 campaign. Tatis was obviously a huge disappointment in 2022 after first fracturing his wrist in an offseason motorcycle accident. He'll start the season finishing off his suspension, but whenever he returns, he'll be one of the most coveted fantasy assets in the game.
San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. (shoulder), who is already out for the rest of the 2022 season while serving an 80-game suspension, announced on Tuesday that he'll undergo shoulder surgery. Tatis decided not to have shoulder surgery last offseason, but it makes sense for him to get it out of the way now. The 23-year-old star wasn't ready for the start of this year after fracturing his wrist while riding a motorcycle, and he was nearing his return to the lineup before his 80-game suspension was announced. Tatis' stock is down after all of his injuries and now with his lengthy suspension, but as long as he's healthy heading into the 2023 campaign, he should be one of the highest-upside young players in baseball.

San Diego Padres shortstop/outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. was fantastic between injuries in 2021, smashing 42 homers and stealing 25 bases in his scattered 546 plate appearances. That along with the .282/.364/.611 triple-slash line made him by far the best per-game contributor in the league. The problem now is that Tatis will miss at least a third of the 2022 season after it was revealed that he required surgery to repair a broken wrist. It would seem that it's a pretty good bet to miss half the season as well, and that leads to all kinds of other worries about him playing at all in 2022 if things don't go smoothly in recovery. While he's still a complete stud to roster in dynasty or keeper leagues, it would not seem wise to use any kind of real draft capital on him for 2022, no matter how good you'll think he'll be when on the field.
