New York Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorious will undergo Tommy John surgery to begin the offseason, the team announced.
Gregorius underwent an MRI on Thursday. He reportedly injured his right elbow, which is Gregorius' throwing elbow, in Game 1 of the American League Division Series against the Boston Red Sox.
The team is optimistic that he will return at some point during the 2019 season. Gleyber Torres is likely to move over to shortstop in his absence.
"My expectation is that he will be with us for most of the season," manager Aaron Boone said, according to YES Network's Jack Curry.
