Angel Guzman - R - Chicago Cubs
March 18, 2010 - 12:25 PM ET

Angel Guzman has opted to have surgery on his right shoulder.

The right-hander paid a visit to Dr. James Andrews earlier this week and a surgical procedure was the recommendation given. Guzman, 28, is likely to miss a large chunk of the regular season, which is a major hit to the back end of the Cubs' bullpen. He had a 2.95 ERA in 55 outings last season.
