The Philadelphia Phillies have recommended that top prospect Andrew Painter undergo Tommy John surgery next week for a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. The surgery would likely sideline him until 2025. The decision comes after a conservative approach to rehab failed to fully heal the ligament. Painter, who just turned 20, was on the verge of making the Phillies' rotation as a teenager. The team will now have to reassess their plans for the future, including the potential re-signing of free agent Aaron Nola and the development of other young pitchers.

Philadelphia Phillies' top pitching prospect, Andrew Painter, may be running out of time to make an impact in the 2023 season as he continues to experience discomfort in his right elbow. While an MRI showed healing, Painter is currently not throwing, and manager Rob Thomson admitted that if he doesn't pitch this year, they will be careful with his recovery. With the trade deadline approaching, the Phillies cannot rely on Painter's contribution, and his innings will likely be restricted in 2024.

Philadelphia Phillies' top pitching prospect, Andrew Painter, is being sent for evaluation after experiencing renewed discomfort in his throwing elbow. This is a continuation of arm issues that have plagued him throughout the year, including a sprained UCL earlier in the season. The Phillies may need to consider adding rotation help as Painter's return timetable becomes uncertain. Left-hander Cristopher Sánchez has been filling the final rotation spot and his performance could impact the team's decision-making ahead of the trade deadline.

Philadelphia Phillies prospect Andrew Painter, ranked No. 10 by MLB Pipeline, is undergoing testing on his right elbow due to discomfort, causing concern for the team. Painter had previously injured the UCL in his elbow during Spring Training but had been rehabbing without surgery. After recently starting to throw off a mound again, he experienced setbacks and was unable to face hitters as scheduled. The team will await the test results to determine the next steps, but it is likely that Painter will be sidelined from throwing for the foreseeable future.

Philadelphia Phillies' top pitching prospect, Andrew Painter, has been experiencing elbow discomfort and underwent testing after feeling stiff. The team is awaiting test results to determine the extent of the injury. Painter had already spent time on the injured list earlier this season with a sprained ulnar collateral ligament. If he has to miss significant time, it could open up the fifth starter spot for other pitchers on the team. Despite the setback, the Phillies' main priority ahead of the trade deadline remains acquiring a power bat.

Philadelphia Phillies prospects Andrew Painter and Noah Song have been kept out of the spotlight as they undergo rehab assignments. Painter, a 20-year-old right-hander, has been dealing with elbow soreness and is being closely monitored by the team. Song, a 26-year-old righty, took a four-year hiatus from baseball to serve in the Navy and is now trying to make the Phillies' active big-league roster. Both pitchers have shown promise and could potentially contribute to the team's playoff push. However, the Phillies have limited media access to the players and are focused on their recovery.

Marlins left-hander Trevor Rogers missed his rehab start due to a non-throwing shoulder issue, leaving the team searching for rotation options. The Marlins are hoping to limit youngster Eury Perez's innings and may need to look elsewhere to cover for his starts. Phillies' Noah Song is set to begin work in sim games, while top pitching prospect Andrew Painter threw a bullpen session. The Mets may skip Tylor Megill's next start or option him to Triple-A before giving Joey Lucchesi or David Peterson a look in the rotation.

Phillies' top pitching prospect Andrew Painter is rehabbing a strain of the UCL in his throwing arm and is being built back up slowly. The team hopes he can provide them with a fresh arm at the back of the rotation down the stretch. Meanwhile, Ranger Suarez is set to make his season debut this weekend at Coors Field, replacing Matt Strahm in the rotation. The Phillies will be careful with Strahm, who will not appear in back-to-back games of relief for a while.

Bryce Harper was unable to put on his cumbersome elbow brace in the allotted time due to the pitch clock, which doesn't wait for anyone, not even a two-time National League MVP who recently returned from Tommy John elbow surgery. The Phillies think the umpires should have discretion to pause the clock for special circumstances. The Phillies allowed a double-digit run total in each of the three games against the Dodgers, and almost no one was immune. The biggest issue is the back of the rotation, specifically Taijuan Walker and Bailey Falter, who have 6.91 and 5.01 ERAs, respectively. Andrew Painter continues to play catch off flat ground from at least 90 feet on almost a daily basis in Clearwater, Fla., and “hasn’t had any issues,” according to agent Scott Boras, in his recovery from a torn ligament in his throwing elbow in spring training.
