Diamondbacks' Perdomo to Undergo Meniscus Surgery, Out 4-6 Weeks

All-Star shortstop Geraldo Perdomo's surgery for a torn meniscus in his right knee sidelines him, impacting the Arizona Diamondbacks' lineup.

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee, sidelining him for four to six weeks.
Perdomo, an All-Star in 2023, reaggravated a knee injury from spring training, leading to the surgery decision.
Rookie Blaze Alexander is expected to take over as the starting shortstop in Perdomo's absence, with Kevin Newman also providing depth.
Perdomo's injury follows top prospect Jordan Lawlar's thumb surgery, further challenging the Diamondbacks' infield.
The Diamondbacks are making roster adjustments, including selecting Kevin Newman from Triple-A Reno, to manage the impact of the injuries.
