The SF Giants got some absolutely brutal news on the injury front as it was announced that multiple doctors have recommended that reliever Randy Rodríguez undergo Tommy John surgery.
This is simply dreadful news as Rodríguez recently went on the IL with an elbow issue that seemed likely to shut him down for the rest of the season out of precaution. It was not initially though that the issue was this serious, but it seems enough damage was done to the elbow that doctors think he should undergo a surgery that would effectively end his 2026 season before it began.
