This is devastating news for Macko who is seen as one of the Blue Jays top pitcher prospects but will now miss the first few months of the season due to recovery from surgery if it goes to that point.
There is still a slight chance that he might not end up needing surgery but the likely scenario here is that he is out for the next little while.
