Good News For Giambi

Jason Giambi, who has been suffering with an unknown illnes for a couple months now, got some good news today.

NEW YORK (AP) – Jason Giambi spent a few anxious months wondering why he felt so fatigued. The New York Yankees first baseman finally has an answer – and hope for a full recovery.
Giambi was diagnosed with a benign tumor, but is expected to return to the team later this season. The Yankees announced Friday night that the slugger was placed on the 15-day disabled list and will be treated immediately.
“I am relieved that they found something that is treatable and I look forward to getting well, coming back strong and helping the Yankees win,” Giambi said in a statement.
The team, citing privacy issues, declined to divulge where the non-cancerous tumor is or what type of treatment Giambi will undergo. Yankees manager Joe Torre said he didn’t believe surgery would be necessary.
“I’m just glad that the news, even though there’s something going on, he can be treated and recover completely,” Torre said after the Yankees beat Baltimore 2-1.
The team is optimistic that Giambi will return before the end of the regular season.

I’m glad to hear that he’s going to be getting better. Now if only his doctors could do something about the Yankees’ starting pitching too.
