Reds Mesoraco has surgery; damage worse than expected

Manager Bryan Price said doctors found that the damage to the labrum was worse than first thought, extending his anticipated rehab by a couple of months.

The 27-year-old catcher was an All-Star for the first time in 2014, when he hit 25 homers and drove in 80 runs. A sore hip limited him to 23 games last season and required surgery. He was the starting catcher on opening day.
