CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP)?With second baseman Chase Utley(notes) unable to play in any spring training game due to a right knee injury, the Philadelphia Phillies are exploring non-surgical options.
The Phillies said an MRI of the five-time All-Star on Monday revealed tendinitis, bone inflammation and chondromalacia, which is pain due to irritation under the kneecap.
Utley wants to avoid surgery, saying: ?I think that?s the last resort at this point. We?re going to try to exhaust every avenue prior to that.?
