ARLINGTON, Texas -- Texas Rangers slugger Prince Fielder is expected to have season-ending neck surgery for the second time in three years, and his career could be jeopardy as well.Fielder got a second opinion Monday, and general manager Jon Daniels said Dr. Drew Dossett recommended surgery. That was the same as Dr. Robert Watkins in Los Angeles said last week after an MRI showed a herniation between Fielders C4 and C5 disks.While Daniels didnt want to speculate on the long-term future for the 32-year-old Fielder, the GM did acknowledge the seriousness of having a second surgery in close proximity to the first.He rehabbed once from it and came back. I think with each additional surgery in that area it increases the risk involved and just the overall, his ability to get back, Daniels said. But its not for me to speculate about that here today.Dossett, a specialist in Texas who works with the Rangers, performed Fielders surgery in May 2014 when he had a cervical fusion of two disks just below the area that is bothering the slugger now.Fielder has hit a career-low .212 with eight homers and 44 RBI in 89 games this season. He had recently been feeling weakness and discomfort in his neck and left arm, similar to what he felt two years ago before surgery.I just know that post-All-Star break last year and through the playoffs, and then just kind of inconsistency of this season, there were times hed show you a spark or two, and then it would just kind of evaporate, manager Jeff Banister said. There were times when the ball still came off his bat at 100 miles an hour. But I dont know this season that this was who wed seen in the past.Daniels said it seems like Fielder was feeling discomfort for some time before the MRI last week after acknowledging that there was an issue.I think he just wanted to play, and wanted to push through it, Daniels said.Fielder wasnt in the clubhouse before Monday nights home game against Oakland.The Rangers got Fielder in a November 2013 trade from Detroit, when they sent second baseman Ian Kinsler to the Tigers. Fielder, who is in his 12th major league season, is signed through 2020.Fielder was limited to 42 games during his Rangers debut in 2014, when he hit .247 with three homers and 16 RBI. Fielder rebounded with a .305 average, 23 homers and 98 RBI in 158 games last year, but fell off a bit the second half of the season.Fielder has been primarily the designated hitter for the Rangers. He had played in 547 consecutive games and hadnt missed consecutive games since August 2007 before his surgery two years ago.Obviously, Prince is a big part of this team. We know what he can do, third baseman Adrian Beltre said. He was a great asset for us last year. Were going to miss him, but hopefully hell get right.The Rangers were tied for the American League lead with 57 wins going into Monday nights game. But their AL West lead had shrunk to 2 1/2 games over Houston, from the 10-game division lead they had before playing 19 of their previous 23 games on the road.

SEATTLE -- Jimmy Grahams statement about his most productive game since suffering a major knee injury was left to what he did on the field, all of it coming in one impressive half on Sunday.Hes a phenomenal athlete and its going to be cool to see him develop more so in our offense this year, Seattle tight end Luke Willson said.Less than a year after suffering a torn patellar tendon in his right knee, Graham was back to being a focal point for Seattle.He finished with six catches for 100 yards and just his third touchdown catch with the Seahawks in a 37-18 romp of the San Francisco 49ers .All of his catches came in the first half as Seattle built a 24-3 lead and rolled to a fifth straight regular-season win over the 49ers.After the game, Graham shared smiles and a handshake with team owner Paul Allen in the Seahawks locker room, then disappeared down a hallway and didnt poke his head back into the locker room again.He wanted to have this kind of impact in the game, Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. He looked great. Its thrilling to see him.Graham was not supposed to be back by now. Being back on the field in 9+ months is not the typical timeline of an injury as severe as the one he suffered last November against Pittsburgh and just as he was beginning to find a more prominent role in Seattles offense.Carroll continued to say through the offseason that Graham was on pace to be ready for the season opener and he proved correct when Graham took the field in Week 1 against Miami.But getting back on the field and being the threat Graham was in the past are two separate matters. And the latter is what Graham showed against the 49ers.His 18-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter came on a broken play when Russell Wilson scrambled left and found Graham coming open in the middle of the field. But his two most important catches both came in third-down situations.Seattle was faciing third-and-15 on its second possession.dddddddddddd Wilson threw a strike down the middle and Graham was able to hold on to an 18-yard catch despite a crunching hit from safety Eric Reid. Graham caught a 12-yard pass later in the drive to set up Christine Michaels second TD run of the game.But the catch everyone was talking about was Grahams 40-yard jump-ball reception where he wrestled the ball out of Reids arms as he came down.It was a free play because the 49ers had jumped offside, but Wilson gave Graham the chance to use his athleticism and size to make the catch. He also showed a trust in Graham that was always being worked on last season.Hes like 6-(foot)-9. Just throw it up to him, Wilson joked. You look down the field just trying to find somebody and there is this big guy running down the field and just tried to give him a chance.Graham was once the primary target of a pass-happy offense as he was during his time in New Orleans. Thats not how it works in Seattle, even with Marshawn Lynch gone and Wilson having shown he can run more of a pass-based offense.What he showed against the 49ers was still having the ability to make defenses account for his presence on the field.Jimmy has done an excellent job of being patient. Sometimes it can be frustrating because he came from an offense where he was seeing all these targets and thats just not the way that we do it here, Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin said.But hes been patient and hes bought in with the fact that were more about controlling the game with the ground game and making the best of our opportunities when we get the targets. ... Hes fully bought into the fact that this is how we play football.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Jerseys 2019 Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Jerseys NFL China China Jerseys Wholesale Cheap Jerseys Online Wholesale Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
