Undergoes elbow surgery
Franklin underwent surgery on his right elbow Friday, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis
Franklin was forced out of April 13 debut at Triple-A Iowa due to a forearm injury, and he'll now miss the remainder of the season after undergoing surgery. His surgery wasn't a Tommy John procedure, so the 24-year-old righty could return next summer.
