"Phillies' Prospect Andrew Painter Undergoes Testing for Elbow Discomfort"

Philadelphia Phillies' top pitching prospect, Andrew Painter, has been experiencing elbow discomfort and underwent testing after feeling stiff. The team is awaiting test results to determine the extent of the injury. Painter had already spent time on the injured list earlier this season with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament.
