Dustin Pedroia's thumb surgery would be more complicated that first thought have proven unfounded.

Dr. Donald Sheridan in Scottsdale, Arizona. There were earlier reports that the procedure
might be more complex—involving grafting a ligament from his wrist (
Tommy John-like)—but this was not necessary.
The Laser Show is on-track to start at second base on
Opening Day against the Orioles on March 31st.
