LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Chris Withrow was diagnosed with a ligament tear in his right elbow and was told he needs Tommy John surgery. The team said Thursday that their first-round draft pick in 2007 was examined last week by team physician Neal ElAttrache, who diagnosed a tear of the ulnar collateral ligament. Withrow, who last pitched for the Dodgers on May 20 in New York, was placed on the disabled list and will consult another doctor next week before deciding his next course of action. Last week, the 25-yuear-old Texan was demoted to Triple-A Albuquerque. He had a 2.95 ERA in 20 appearances this season, with 28 strikeouts and 18 walks in 21 1-3 innings while holding opposing hitters to a .143 batting average. Five of his outings lasted longer than one inning. "Chris has always been a guy that weve paid attention to," manager Don Mattingly said. "And when weve used him, you never knew how he was going to bounce back the next day -- whether we used him one inning or two innings. "He pitched the night before he went down. He was throwing 95, and he got guys out in the eighth. So there was nothing that were trying to hide here," Mattingly added. "It is a blow for us because hes a guy with a power arm and power stuff. But we got caught up in a numbers game. So it wasnt that he didnt deserve to be here." On April 27 against the Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium, Withrow walked the bases loaded in the eighth inning and Mattingly had enough confidence in him to let him get out of the jam. He did, striking out Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki to help preserve a 6-3 victory. "I remember taking questions about him the day he pitched with the bases loaded and got Tulo and Cargo out. So hes a guy were going to miss," Mattingly said. "Hes a guy that had some success for us in that playoff run last year, and you all saw how I used him in the seventh and eighth inning."

They shot a season-high 50 per cent from the field and forced 16 turnovers to win for just the second time this month.You get that taste and then start to remember why we do the things we do every day, why we run the system, why we try to play and get the win, Miles said. Weve still got to believe in that stuff because as competitors we want to win every game, make everybody play, want to make every shot and you get impatient.Mo Williams had 24 points and 10 assists and Shabazz Muhammad added 21 points and six rebounds for the Timberwolves (5-21). They have lost 11 of their last 12 games.I told our guys what I was most disappointed in, and it was pointed at our young players, was I thought they had no energy to start the game, coach Flip Saunders said.
