Sawyer Gipson-Long, Detroit Tigers, Out Due to Elbow Injury After Tommy John Surgery
Sawyer Gipson-Long of the Detroit Tigers is on the 60-day injured list due to Tommy John surgery on his elbow, with a return expected in early June.
What It Means
Sawyer Gipson-Long is currently recovering from Tommy John surgery. This absence affects the Detroit Tigers' rotation, as they are missing a right-handed starting pitcher. Gipson-Long has not played any games this season, which means there are no current stats to evaluate his potential impact upon return.
As Gipson-Long is sidelined, the Tigers rely on their other pitchers like Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize. With no recent performance data available for Gipson-Long, it is hard to predict his form once he comes back in early June. The team must manage without his contributions until his expected return.
