  Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Wednesday that Minter will undergo surgery on his left hip, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Minter visited a specialist Wednesday to determine the best course of action regarding his hip injury that has been plaguing him for most of the season, and it was ultimately decided that the 30-year-old reliever will require a procedure. Given the timing of Minter's injury, there's a good chance that the procedure will put an early end to his season, though Snitker said the team won't know for sure until after the operation is completed.

  Minter is slated to see a specialist this week regarding his injured left hip, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports. Minter landed on the injured list Monday with left hip inflammation -- the second time his hip has forced him to spend time on the IL this year. His first injury caused him to sit out the entire month of June, and Atlanta will know more the southpaw's status for the remainder of the season after his doctor visit.

  Atlanta placed Minter on the 15-day injured list Monday with left hip inflammation. It's the same injury that caused him to miss more than a month of action earlier this season. Atlanta hasn't provided a timeline for Minter to return from his latest hip injury, but the club will now be without him until at least late August. Dylan Lee was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to take Minter's spot on the active roster and in the bullpen.

  Atlanta activated Minter (hip) from the 15-day injured list Monday. Minter has been on the shelf since late May with left hip inflammation. He made three rehab appearances at Triple-A Gwinnett, allowing two runs (one earned) with a 3:2 K:BB over three frames. Minter should immediately be thrown back into a high-leverage relief role when Atlanta begins its three-game series with the Giants on Tuesday.
