EDGE Analysis
A return for the 2016 campaign is now out of the question for Pearce, who will need surgery to repair his elbow. His goal of being ready by April of 2017 seems attainable, as the tentative timeframe for his recovery is 4-6 months following surgery. Pearce will finish the season with a .288/.374/.492 line and 13 home runs.
