ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) - Texas Rangers outfielder Brad Wilkerson is scheduled to have season-ending surgery on his right shoulder next week.
Wilkerson has been bothered by his ailing shoulder all season and hasn't played since Aug. 9. The Rangers hoped rest would help, but the injury hasn't improved.
He is slated to have surgery in California next Tuesday, Texas general manager Jon Daniels said Wednesday.
Wilkerson was acquired from Washington in a four-player trade that sent all-star Alfonso Soriano to the Nationals last December. Wilkerson batted .222 this season with 14 homers and 44 RBIs in 95 games. He also struck out a team-high 116 times.
