Seranthony Dominguez was the Phillies best reliever in 2018. (Ian D’Andrea)After a promising start to his career, Philadelphia Phillies reliever Seranthony Dominguez continues to get bad news.
According to The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Scott Lauber, a doctor has recommended that Dominguez get Tommy John surgery. Lauber notes that Dominguez has not yet decided whether he will undergo the procedure or if he will wait and get further tests to gauge any improvement.
Tommy John surgery would be a massive setback for Dominguez. Players who get the surgery typically return after 12 months, and sometimes struggle to be as effective as they were pre-operation.
