"Twins' Anthony DeSclafani Out for Season After Arm Surgery"

Minnesota Twins pitcher Anthony DeSclafani will miss the entire 2024 season and part of 2025 after undergoing flexor tendon surgery, adding to a series of injury setbacks throughout his career. The surgery comes with a 13-month recovery timeline, leaving the Twins without a veteran rotation option. The team may consider signing DeSclafani to a low-cost deal for 2025, but for now, they may seek out additional pitching depth to compensate for his absence.

Astros' Lance McCullers Jr. undergoes season-ending forearm surgery.

Houston Astros pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. will miss the rest of the 2023 season after undergoing surgery to repair a damaged right flexor tendon. This marks the second lost season for McCullers in the last five years, as he also missed all of the 2019 campaign due to Tommy John surgery. The Astros have lost two members of their projected starting five to season-ending injuries, but their makeshift group of starters has still been one of the better rotations in baseball. McCullers is still owed $51MM between 2024-26, and if he is able to put his flexor problems behind him, there is plenty of time to better make good on the Astros’ investment.

Mariners' Robbie Ray to Undergo Season-Ending Flexor Tendon Surgery.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Robbie Ray will miss the rest of the regular season after undergoing flexor tendon surgery. Ray, who signed a five-year, $115 million contract with Seattle before the 2022 season, strained his left flexor tendon earlier this month. The Mariners shut him down for two weeks with the hopes that he would be able to resume his throwing program and return to the rotation, but further testing showed damage in a separate area of the flexor tendon. The injury will test the depth of the Mariners' pitching rotation.

Mariners' Robbie Ray to Undergo Season-Ending Flexor Tendon Surgery

Seattle Mariners left-hander Robbie Ray will miss the remainder of the season due to flexor tendon repair surgery. Ray had already been on the injured list due to a flexor strain, but further testing revealed damage in a different area of the tendon. This is a huge blow for the Mariners, as Ray was a key part of their plans for this year. The team is now re-evaluating their pitching depth and may need to look for external options.
