Oakland manager Bob Geren said Thursday that he's expecting Joey Devine (elbow) to be fully healthy by the start of spring training.
Devine underwent Tommy John surgery in April of 2009 and missed the entire season. The 26-year-old right-hander posted a 0.59 ERA, a 0.83 WHIP and a 49/15 K/BB ratio in 2008, though, and could play a major role as a setup man for the A's this year if he proves his health with a strong spring.

Joey Devine played catch Saturday for the first time since undergoing Tommy John Surgery in April.
Devine is aiming to be at full health by the start of spring training 2010. If he reaches his goal, there's a good chance he'll be battling Andrew Bailey for ninth-inning duties next season.

Joey Devine is "well ahead of schedule" in his return from April Tommy John surgery, and hopes to be ready by the start of spring training in 2010.
Devine is scheduled to begin a throwing program in mid-August. "I'm feeling really good and strong," he said Tuesday. "I feel much better than I did before surgery. Dr. Andrews is so good at what he does, that's why so many guys go to him. I couldn't be happier I went to him."

The Associated Press reports that Joey Devine underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.
Word of Devine's surgery first surfaced on Tuesday, but details of the procedure were initially unclear. With the word that Devine underwent Tommy John surgery, chances are he won't be ready to make a contribution to the A's bullpen until sometime next summer.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Joey Devine had surgery on the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow Tuesday and is expected to miss the remainder of the season.
Specific details of the surgery have yet to be provided, but it appears to be safe to cut Devine loose in AL-only leagues. With Devine definitively out of the picture for 2009, Brad Ziegler has a solid chance to remain Oakland's closer all season.
