Lowell need surgery?

Peter Gammons, said via Twitter, Mike Lowell "may" require thumb surgery. This is surely what is holding up the trade of Lowell to Texas for C/1B/DH Max Ramirez. Also, WEEI.com reported that Texas will examine Lowell in person this week. It's unclear whether the injury would hamper Lowell more at the plate or in the field. That could determine whether the trade goes through as the Rangers see Lowell as more of a first baseman and DH than as a third baseman.
