NEED TO KNOW:[amp]nbsp;C Gregg Zaun's hand surgery was deemed to be a success Thursday in Baltimore and he could be in Toronto Friday where he will begin rehabilitating from[amp]nbsp; the injury. Zaun is expected to be out six to eight weeks, but general manager J.P. Ricciardi says he thinks both Zaun and even Reed Johnson (herniated disk) might be back earlier than people think. "It wouldn't surprise me, because of the type of individuals they are and because of the way they work," Ricciardi said.
