Surgery still an option for Joe Wieland
Joe Wieland - S - San Diego Padres
July 14, 2012 - 2:55 PM ET

Joe Wieland (elbow) met with team doctor's on Friday, and will now meet with the Padres staff on Monday to discuss his course of action.

Surgery is still a very real possibility for Wieland, who was recently shut down after experiencing a setback in his throwing program. It's starting to look very unlikely that he returns to the Padres rotation this season.
