On Saturday, Johnny Cueto made his fourth start since returning from a stint on the disabled list, but it might have been his last bit of action for a long time.
Manager Bruce Bochy was talking with reporters Monday and explained that the right-hander, who is headed back to the DL thanks to an issue in his right elbow, could end up getting Tommy John surgery, which would end his 2018 season and also leave him out for a good portion of 2019.
"There has not been something determined yet, but it's fair to say there's a strong possibility of having surgery," Bochy told reporters.
