Jair Jurrjens and the Braves had the biggest scare of the offseason earlier this week Jurrjens had to leave the Orlando training complex to receive an MRI on his shoulder.
Thankfully for them both, Jurrjens and his shoulder are fine.
Jurrjens' shoulder only had some inflammation and there was no damage to the labrum or rotator cuff.
Jurrjens, 24, is only seven months older than phenom Tommy Hanson.

Jair hopes to begin a throwing program within the next two weeks and plans to make his first scheduled start of Spring Training.
