UPDATE: 7\/26 – 4:00pm Jason Grilli has been diagnosed by Dr. James Andrews with a flexor strain in his right arm. This injury will not require surgery, although it will require about two weeks worth of rest before being reevaluated. If that goes well then Grilli will be allowed to start a throwing program and begin his rehab. He will not be expected back until late August at the earliest. His exact timetable to return will be revealed after he is reevaluated.<\/p>\n

UPDATE:\u00a07\/23 –\u00a01:42am<\/p>\n

Jason Grilli left last night\u2019s game against the Nationals in the ninth inning due to \u201cright forearm discomfort\u201d. He had given up 2 earned runs in 2\/3rd<\/sup> of an inning in the game before leaving after striking out Wilson Ramos.<\/p>\n

The Pirates have said that he will be re-evaluated on Tuesday. He will also likely have an MRI done to see if any damage was done.<\/p>\n

Grilli sent a message to Pirate fans via Twitter early Tuesday morning:<\/p>\n

Minor setback tonight. Thx for thoughts & prayers from everyone. I will be back ASAP for my teammates & the Burgh. #adversityismymiddlename<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Jason Grilli (@GrillCheese49) July 23, 2013<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Grilli is 30-for-31 in save opportunities this season with a 2.34 ERA in 42.1 innings while striking out 66 and walking 10.<\/p>\n
