I'm worried about if the kid just can't stay healthy. And an offseason of conditioning would have been nice. But it's silly to think last year was representative of his ceiling if he was playing hurt. I'm sure the doctors wouldn't recommend surgery for a phantom injury.

Shoulder, groin, hand/wrist injuries last year. I hope he's not Glass Joe.

The article said "offseason" surgery. That could mean he had surgery in January for all we know.
