Sánchez underwent Tommy John surgery in June of 2024, but has not returned to the mound yet.
Rodríguez weighed other options such as injections or rest and rehab. The internal brace procedure is an option for some pitchers, and it offers a slightly more accelerated recovery timeline compared to Tommy John surgery.
