Here’s a running list of injury updates around the Major Leagues:

– Phillies closer, Brad Lidge, who is on a rehab assingment, has made four Minor League starts up to this point. According to Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer Lidge could still require about six more appearances.

– Jon Garland underwent season-ending surgery yesterday according to Dylan Hernandez of the Los Angeles Times. The procedure included clean up and reinforcement of the labrum and bursa.

– Third baseman David Wright is expected to begin a rehab assignment at Class-A next Friday a team official said (via Adam Rubin of ESPNNewYork.com). Mets manager, Terry Collins, estimated Wright will need 30 to 40 Minor League AB’s before being activated.

– Luke Scott was examined by Orioles’ orthopedist John Wilckens yesterday and it appears that the tear in his right labrum has not gotten worse and seems to be progressing, reports Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun. That means surgery does not seem necessary at this point and that he can return on or around when he is eligible to come off the DL on July 19.

– Rockies outfielder Carlos Gonzalez underwent an MRI yesterday and it revealed that there’s no fracture in his hand reports Troy Renck of the Denver Post.
