Tigers ace Tarik Skubal to undergo elbow surgery for loose bodies
Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, and the club scratched him from tonight's start against the Boston Red Sox. The Tigers announced there is no set timetable for his return, leaving recovery length unannounced. The loose bodies issue traces back to at least last week's start in Atlanta, when Skubal shook his arm and requested a mound visit. Skubal anchors Detroit's rotation, so his absence forces the team to reshuffle starts and will test the pitching depth during a critical stretch of the season.
Tarik Skubal to undergo surgery to remove loose bodies from his left elbow, manager A.J. Hinch announced. No timetable for return yet.
I clearly don't understand baseball.
Loose bodies? What does that even mean? Edwin Diaz just had this done!
Passan reports 2-3 months. Have you heard that anywhere?
Nooooooo…. glad he’s getting it taken care of though
Welp, fudge. Only bright side of this is if it makes it easier to extend his contract.
