Ryon Healy Undergoes Hip Surgery

By Jeff Todd | August 7, 2019 at 7:05pm CDT

Aug. 7: Healy underwent a debridement procedure on his right hip and is expected to require four to six months to recover, Divish tweets.

Aug. 2: Mariners corner infielder Ryon Healy is slated to undergo hip surgery, Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times was among those to cover on Twitter. The procedure will sideline him for the remainder of the season.

Healy was previously diagnosed with spinal stenosis. Whether the hip issue is related directly or indirectly is not entirely clear. Neither is it known just how lengthy a rehab process will be required.

The 27-year-old Healy was already facing questions on the field before the health issues arose. He turned in below-average offensive numbers for the second consecutive season, with good power (.219 ISO) but another sub-.300 OBP. In a total of 711 plate appearances with Seattle, Healy has posted a lackluster .236/.280/.423 batting line with 31 home runs. Given his lack of defensive value and baserunning abilities, that type of output is simply too tepid.

Healy entered the 2019 season with two-plus years of big league service and will cross the three-year mark in 2019, making him eligible for arbitration for the first time in his career this winter. This year’s health troubles will suppress a theoretical raise to an extent, but the power numbers that Healy has already logged in his young career will put him in line for a decent bump from this year’s $580K all the same. As such, it’s worth wondering whether the Mariners will tender him a contract at all this winter. The answer to that question could be dependent on the status of his recovery.

    I have spinal stenosis, among other problems. I’m a couch potato and it’s a bear of a problem. I don’t know how a pro athlete can play with that.

      Jorge I feel you have it on multiple levels. I am disabled because if it. It is very possible that Healy was favoring the leg that he had pain in and it threw his center off that caused the injury. It is too bad would have liked to see him be a member of the team for awhile. Seems to be a great guy with a good sense of humor. Wish him the best.

    It’s not just his recovery that will dictate whether or not he’s tenured a contract, it will also depend on what happens with the current outfield options.

    Fraley, Bishop, and possibly Lewis at some point, will need opportunities in 2020. If Haniger, Smith, and Santana are all still around, we’ll probably see more Vogelbach at 1B and Santana at DH once Fraley and Bishop are up. Austin Nola has options (so does Healy), but finding PA’s for a guy not likely in the long-term plans and with limited defensive value wouldn’t be easy.

    Healy is a great guy, I had the pleasure of bumping into him once and exchanged a few sentences with him. But…I really cannot see him returning to the M’s next year for all the reasons mentioned in the article. Great guy and I certainly wish him well and a long mlb career.
