FILE - In this Jan. 22, 2010 photo, Seattle Mariners pitcher Cliff Lee, answers questions during a news conference at Safeco Field in Seattle.   The Mariners say left-hander Cliff Lee is recovering from minor left foot surgery and will be limited when pitchers and catchers report to spring training this month.  The team announced Monday, Feb. 8, 2010,  that its biggest offseason acquisition had surgery Friday in his native Arkansas to remove a bone spur that broke loose and was floating in his left foot.

Cliff Lee has a new spring training address in Arizona, the Seattle Mariners’ complex, but it likely will be another week or more before he can pitch. Acquired from Philadelphia in the biggest trade of the offseason, Lee has a bandage around his left foot following Feb. 5 surgery to remove a bone spur.
