Royals pitcher has surgery, will miss entire 2004 season
SURPRISE, Ariz. — Kansas City Royals right-hander Kyle Snyder will miss the season after undergoing surgery yesterday to repair torn labrum cartilage in his right shoulder.
Royals trainer Nick Swartz said Snyder would be able to begin a toss program in four months and should be able to throw from a mound in six months. He said Snyder might be able to pitch in the Arizona Fall League, which usually begins in late September.
"Our overriding goal is for him to be healthy in 2005, but he's going to miss all the competitive 2004 season," Swartz said.

Royals general manager Allard Baird said Gonzalez would not arrive until today and his first workout would be tomorrow. The mandatory reporting date is not until next week.
"It is not an overly concerning issue or anything like that," Baird said Wednesday. "I spoke to his agent, and Juan has family issues that he's dealing with. I don't want to go into details out of respect for Juan. It's something personal. We know what's going on. The reasons that were given to me, I'm very comfortable with."
Gonzalez, a two-time American League MVP, signed a $4.5 million, one-year contract with the Royals that includes a team option for 2005.
The 34-year-old Gonzalez was hampered by injuries during the past two season with the Texas Rangers, playing in 82 games last season and only 70 in 2002.
