LEFT-HANDED PITCHER CLIFF LEE SUFFERS LOWER ABDOMINAL STRAIN

Was Examined and Treated in Seattle Today.

 

PEORIA, Ariz. -- Seattle Mariners Executive Vice President & General Manager of Baseball Operations Jack Zduriencik today announced that pitcher Cliff Lee was diagnosed with a right lower abdominal strain and was treated this afternoon in Seattle by Team Medical Director Dr. Ed Khalfayan.

Lee underwent an ultrasound exam and Dr. Khalfayan gave him a platelet rich plasma (PRP) injection. He will be re-evaluated in seven days.

 

Lee was acquired by the Mariners in December in a trade with the Philadelphia Phillies. So far this spring he has started two Cactus League games, pitching a total of 5.2 innings.

Zduriencik said, “We are hoping for a speedy recovery and look forward to him returning.”

On February 5, Cliff underwent surgery on his left foot to remove a spur that had broken loose from its attachment, and returned to normal baseball activity in early March.
