In a press conference, general manager Frank Wren provided what information he could. Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s David O’Brien provided some updates.

#Braves Medlen MRI showed "some involvement of the ligament" and he'll get second opinion and further evaluation — David O'Brien (@ajcbraves) March 11, 2014

Dr. Andrews is expected to examine #Braves Medlen's MRI. He did the Medlen TJ surgery, and MRI often difficult to read after previous TJ — David O'Brien (@ajcbraves) March 11, 2014

Needing to get a second opinion is somewhat hopeful news, although the mention of Dr. James Andrews’ name isn’t exactly cause for celebration. Medlen took himself out of a Spring Training game against the Mets after 3.2 innings and throwing two pitches during which he visibly grabs his arm in discomfort.

O’Brien also reports that Wren has asked about Ervin Santana in response to this and the discomfort reported by Brandon Beachy, but it was merely due diligence. He admitted his worry about the pitching injuries in his clubhouse.
