Breaking News: Giants Receive Devastating Injury Update on Jung Hoo Lee Following…
The San Francisco Giants (20-25) haven’t started the season as they had hoped, and they’ve now suffered a significant setback. Shortly after outfielder Jorge Soler returned from the injured list, the team officially lost another outfielder for the season.
Jung Hoo Lee has been diagnosed with a torn labrum and will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, according to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic.
Lee had been off to a promising start in his rookie season, slashing .262/.310/.331 with two homers and eight RBIs. The 25-year-old injured his left shoulder after crashing into a wall during Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Reds. Initially diagnosed with a dislocation, Lee sought a second opinion from Dr. Neal ElAttrache on Thursday, who identified the structural damage.

Given these events, how will San Francisco recover from this chaos?
