Luis Garcia, the injured right-hander for the Astros, received an update revealing inflammation in his right elbow, leading to a four-week shutdown. This elbow issue has persisted for nearly two years, revealing complications after his Tommy John surgery in 2023. Initially expected to recover by 2025, Garcia's continued discomfort has led to further evaluations. While the four-week delay is better than another surgery, it complicates his timeline, potentially pushing his return to June 2025 after an extensive ramp-up period.
"The elbow has been an ongoing issue for almost two years now. Despite setbacks, hope remains for Garcia's eventual return but it will take time."
"A four-week shutdown isn't as bad as another season-ending surgery, but it's frustrating as Garcia continues to struggle with elbow pain."
