Rangers catching prospect out for the year

Rangers catching prospect Tomas Telis, who made his U.S. debut last year at the age of 17, is expected to miss all of 2010 after undergoing Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.

GM Jon Daniels said Telis, ranked No. 26 among the Rangers prospects by Baseball America magazine, recently had the surgery and is expected to miss the full year.

The Rangers’ backstop curse claims another victim.

4 walks in 203 at bats? Did Oscar Azocar steal an ID and take up catching?

I suppose it's never a good time for this to happen, but if it's got to missing a season at this age is better than at 22 or 23. Much of the work still needing to be done is instructional and it isn't all about game reps. He'll be able to get back to the former a lot quicker than the latter.
