Los Angeles Angels first baseman Albert Pujols had arthroscopic knee surgery last week, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The procedure was described as a “clean-up” and is considered minor.
Pujols, 32, reportedly already is rehabbing the injury and will be at 100 percent far before the start of spring training in February.
In his first season with the Angels after signing a 10-year, $240 million contract last offseason, Pujols hit .285 with 30 homers, 105 RBIs, a .343 on-base percentage and a .516 slugging percentage.
The three-time NL MVP and nine-time All-Star began the 2012 slowly, not homering until May 6. As late as May 14, he was hitting below .200.
