Rangers RHP Lewis out rest of season

Texas Rangers right-handed pitcher Colby Lewis will have surgery to remove bone spurs from his right hip and will miss the rest of the season.

Lewis has not pitched this season as he has been recovering from elbow surgery. He said his elbow feels good but has recently dealt with hip pain.

The hip injury got to the point that it affected his pitching mechanics.

Lewis had been pitching in minor league rehab games and was looking to rejoin the Rangers rotation in a couple weeks.

Lewis is a free agent at the end of the season after getting a one-year, $2 million contract last offseason.
