Unlikely they'd have any educated guess at how long it is going to take at this point. Surgery is barely a month old, and he just got the wrappings off the other day. It all depends on how the rehab goes.
Unless there was other damage that hasn't been disclosed.
Typical recovery time is 12-18 months. It's probably Goldberg going worst-case scenario. And most guys need 18 months to get all the way back (80-90 percent at 12 months, typically)
But, hey maybe that will increase the urgency in seeking pitching help... which is a good thing.
