Lee Jeong-hoo (26, San Francisco, photo) avoided surgery for now.
The San Francisco team of the Major League Baseball (MLB) announced on the 14th that it had placed Jeong-hoo Lee on the 10-day injured list (IL). Each MLB club places players on the IL for 10 days (15 days for pitchers) or 60 days depending on the severity of the injury. Even if included in a 10-day IL, the IL listing period can be extended depending on the speed of recovery. Listing a player on the 10-day IL first means that the club expects him to return within two months (60 days).
San Francisco manager Bob Melvin said ahead of today's home game where he lost 4-6 to the LA Dodgers, "I can't say for sure when Lee Jung-hoo will return, but surgery will not be necessary. Lee Jung-hoo will meet with the team doctor this evening to discuss the future rehabilitation process." “We plan to discuss it,” he said.
Jeong-hoo Lee collapsed in the top of the first inning of a home game against Cincinnati the previous day after hitting the fence while jumping to catch an opposing batter's home run ball with two outs and the bases loaded. Lee Jung-hoo, who was immediately replaced, was diagnosed with a dislocated left shoulder as a result of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan.
San Francisco has seven fielders on the IL, including Lee Jeong-hoo, three outfielders, a pinch hitter, a shortstop, and a catcher. MLB.com said, “With San Francisco fielders suffering from injuries, Lee Jeong-hoo is the most difficult resource to replace,” and added, “Lee Jung-hoo not only led the attack as the starting top hitter, but also played a key role in stabilizing the team’s defense as a center fielder.” . Lee Jeong-hoo's place will be replaced by Luis Matos (22), who debuted in the big league last year. 슬롯사이트
