Cliff Lee will miss his first turn through the rotation with the Seattle Mariners due to head hunting:
Seattle Mariners pitcher Cliff Lee has been suspended for the first five games of the regular season for throwing a pitch over the head of Arizona’s Chris Snyder in an exhibition game this week.
Lee, a former AL Cy Young winner in his first season with Seattle, was ejected from Monday’s game.
I suspect the suspension will be reduced on appeal.

What prompted the overhead pitch?
