Doctors removed the appendix of Jason Heyward Monday:

The team announced the news late Monday night, long after Atlanta’s game at Colorado was postponed because of snow and rescheduled as part of a split doubleheader Tuesday.

In a two-sentence press release, the Braves say Heyward had surgery Monday night at Rose Medical Center in Denver. There was no indication of how long he might be out of the lineup.

Since these surgeries are much less invasive than they used to be, I suspect Jason will be back after a short stay on the disable list.
