May 29 -- MYERS TO HAVE SURGERY THURSDAY

BY SCOTT LAUBER

Still nothing official from the Phillies, but Brett Myers' father, Phil, has told the Times-Union of Jacksonville, Fla., that Myers will undergo surgery Thursday to repair the torn labrum in his left hip. Dr. Bryan Kelly will perform the surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York. Kelly, you may remember, operated on Chase Utley in November. The best-case scenario is that Myers will be ready to pitch by September, but it's possible he'll be lost for the season.

More as we get it.
