Doubront (left elbow sprain) will get a second opinion, and is not sure if surgery is in his future, the Bay Area News Group's John Hickey reports.

EDGE Analysis

Second opinions are rarely good signs with arm issues for pitchers, so we will cautiously await the results. Eric Surkamp will slot into Doubront's rotation spot for now, but Jesse Hahn is probably a more likely long-term option if Doubront is in for a lengthy absence.
