Yovani Gallardo to miss four weeks after knee surgery

Yovani Gallardo of the Milwaukee Brewers is expected to miss four weeks following an arthroscopic surgery he is scheduled to have on Tuesday. If he were to return in four weeks, it would only give him two weeks before Opening Day, nearly assuring him of starting his season on the disabled list.

Gallardo was diagnosed with torn cartilage in his left knee after being examined today by the team doctor. The injury is said to have come during a throwing session a few days ago.
