Jeff Becerra about eye problems: "I am dealing with some very serious eye issues and undergoing a series of treatment prior to a third more serious surgery.At this point, we are worried about losing the actual right eye. I promise you, no matter what I will always play. I just need to get through this process and get better. There is a tremendous amount of pain which is preventing me from traveling. My apologies to you all.''
