Sawyer Gipson-Long of Detroit Tigers Out After Tommy John Surgery, Expected Return Late May or Early June

Sawyer Gipson-Long is on the 60-day injured list, impacting the Detroit Tigers' rotation. With no current season stats, his absence means players like Tarik Skubal and Jack Flaherty could see more responsibility. The Tigers have a game against the Texas Rangers on May 9, 2025, which he will miss.

Gipson-Long's recovery from Tommy John surgery is similar to his previous injury in March. His return is expected in late May or early June, which could change the rotation. The Tigers' depth chart includes other pitchers like Reese Olson and Casey Mize, who might step up during his absence.
