From the Dayton Daily News:
Wilson, who is 1-5 with a 7.77 ERA, had a torn labrum repaired in 1996 and Tommy John surgery in '99. He's been on the disabled list since May 25 and doesn't like being idle."It's the worst," he said. "Not only am I having surgery, but my season's done. And ball players have routines and do things to make sure we stay sane."
Probably not surprising. I sincerely doubt we'll ever see Paul Wilson pitching again as a Cincinnati Red, and he might be done period.
