No, it was surgery. He'd been complaining about his right writst hurting him for a while, now he's undergone surgery on his right バネ指 ("bane yubi" or "spring finger" - which ever one that is). The full story is available in Japanese at Nikkan Sports.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
