Phillies' Tommy Hunter: Gets injection in elbow

Hunter received a PRP injection in his throwing elbow Friday, Meghan Montemurro of The Athletic reports.

Hunter has been dealing with a Grade 1 flexor strain in his right elbow since February. Late in March, he hit a setback in his recovery when soreness returned following a bullpen session, so he received an injection Friday to help expedite the healing process. The Phillies expect Hunter to rest about three more weeks before he begins a throwing regimen.
