Huston Street To Undergo Knee Surgery

By Steve Adams | August 23, 2016 at 10:14pm CDT

Angels closer Huston Street’s season is over,  as he’ll undergo arthroscopic surgery due to “persistent medial knee pain,” tweets Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times. The 33-year-old is expected to be healthy for Spring Training 2017. The Orange County Register’s Jeff Fletcher wrote over the weekend that surgery was possible and called it “likely” earlier this afternoon.

Street’s 2016 season has been a disaster, as the former Rookie of the Year and two-time All-Star has struggled considerably since returning from an oblique issue that cost him a month earlier this year. Street yielded just one run through his first 7 2/3 innings before that oblique injury sidelined him for nearly all of the month of May. In the 14 2/3 innings that followed, Street surrendered 15 runs on 27 hits (four homers) and 10 walks with 10 strikeouts. The 88.2 mph he averaged on his fastball this season was the lowest average velocity of any season in his 12-year big league career, and his 5.6 K/9 and 4.8 BB/9 were also career-worsts.

The 2016 campaign marked the first season of a two-year, $18MM contract extension signed by Street back in May of 2015. He’s guaranteed a $9MM salary next season plus at least a $1MM buyout on a $10MM club option for the 2018 season. That salary and Street’s experience (324 career saves) probably make him a lock to serve as the team’s closer in 2017, but the emergence of Cam Bedrosian could at least give the Angels some reason to consider a change next year. Bedrosian is currently on the DL himself due to a finger issue, but the 24-year-old broke out with a 1.12 ERA, 11.4 K/9, 3.1 BB/9 and a 49.5 percent ground-ball rate in 40 1/3 innings this season.

The lost year for Street is just one entry in what is a seemingly endless list of things that have gone wrong for the Halos in 2016. The Angels have lost both Andrew Heaney and Nick Tropeano to Tommy John surgery, while Garrett Richards hasn’t taken the mound since May 1 due to a UCL injury of his own. C.J. Wilson never pitched for the Angels this year, and Jered Weaver has been a shell of his former self, working with an 82-84 mph fastball and surrendering a woeful 5.47 ERA.

        I don’t see any way the Dodgers would bite on a deal involving Seager. Urias, De Leon, Puig, Bellinger, and two lottery tickets would seem to me to be their best offer. By this point next year, Seager’s trade value, if you combine contract status and production, could rival Trout’s

        No way they’d trade him to the Dodgers. Trout is so good, it’s hard to actually get value from a trade return. The majority of teams who trade for Trout would be in the same boat LA is in now. If it was any other superstar, I’d say trade him. It’ll take a few years, but if them commit to a rebuild now; they may be ready to legitimately contend by the time he’s due for free agency. That’s their only shot at keeping him beyond his current deal.

    No way. He’s signed to a pretty good contract compared to his level of production. Plus dudes like 24. He’s the center piece of a rebuild. You stop making dumb signings and trading young guys for glove only players. And atleast not use premium picks on 2 players back to back drafts that play the same position
