Max Kepler had surgery in Philadelphia on Oct. 2 to repair a partially detached abdominal muscle that had bothered him since the summer. He recovered in a hospital room, which featured a view of Citizens Bank Park in the distance.

The Philadelphia Phillies reportedly signed outfielder Max Kepler to a one-year, $10 million deal late Thursday night. Kepler spent a decade with the Minnesota Twins after signing as an international free agent from Germany in 2009.
