Brandon Webb done for season?

According to the Arizona Republic, Diamondbacks ace, Brandon Webb may need surgery and would be done for the year. 

Wow, talk about a situation going from bad to worse... to a nightmare.  Webb, who only pitched on opening day this season, is going to get a second opinion on whether or not he needs surgery on his right shoulder.  If he does, he'll be out for the year and he'll under go a nine month rehab process.  For you patient owners out there that were hoping you would get a boost in pitching in the second half, things are looking bleak.  If there's any silver lining you can take from this its that, this has been a very injury plagued season and odds are despite not having your 2nd or 3rd round pick (which is around the time Webb was usually selected), you're not as far out of contention as you would be in most seasons.  For Webb owners, keep your eyes peeled as we should start to see pitchers coming up out of the minors in August and September and that will be looking to win a spot on their roster next year.  You could find a diamond in the rough that will soften the loss of Webb.
