Past Fantasy Outlooks

2003
The A's snatched Etherton up in a minor league deal after he posted a nice season at Triple-A Louisville. Pitchers coming back from major shoulder injuries can take longer to return to form, so it's a decent gamble for the A's. Etherton will compete for a spot in the rotation this spring and could get a shot if any of the younger pitchers falter.
Etherton has been slow to develop since having surgery on his pitching shoulder in March of 2001. A number of pitchers fail to make it all the way back from a torn labrum. The odds are further stacked against such pitchers who hadn't quite made it yet, like Etherton.
Etherton had surgery to repair a torn labrum in March of 2001. Typically it takes 12-to-18 months to fully recover from such a surgery. Etherton's performance in spring training might shed a little light on his progress, but he may still need to develop more as a pitcher, even if he is largely recovered from the injury.
