A's outfielder Lawrence Butler underwent successful surgery on his right patellar tendon Friday with Dr. Mike Banffy at the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopedic Center in Los Angeles. Dr. Banffy performed a partial tendon tear repair and debridement of chronic scar tissue. Lawrence also received a PRP injection into his left patella tendon, under ultrasound guidance, to address chronic tendonitis.
Butler will rehab throughout the offseason in preparation for Spring Training 2026.
