The Associated Press
Scott Sizemore, the Detroit Tigers' minor league player of the year in 2009, has undergone surgery on his fractured left ankle.
The Tigers say a surgeon inserted screws Tuesday to stabilize Sizemore's ankle joint, which was then immobilized. He is to have the screws removed in January and is expected to be ready for the start of spring training in February.
Sizemore suffered the injury Oct. 22 in an Arizona Fall League game.
He combined to hit .308 with 17 home runs, 66 RBI and 21 stolen bases in 130 games with Double-A Erie and Triple-A Toledo.
General manager Dave Dombrowski has said Sizemore likely will be Detroit's second baseman if veteran Placido Polanco, who's eligible for free agency, doesn't return.
