Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Kip Wells said Wednesday he will have surgery next week to replace a vein in his right arm, near where he has a blood clot. Though is no established time for recovery, Wells said he would have a better idea after surgery, which is scheduled for Monday. "Whatever it is, it's too much," Wells said. "I came in here throwing well. It's frustrating. I just have to hope for a speedy recovery." Wells was diagnosed with a blood clot last week near his right throwing arm. In the surgery, a vein will be taken from his leg and put in his chest to replace a vein that has become restricted.
