Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo announced that right-handed pitchers Thyago Vieira and Josh Winder will both undergo Tommy John surgery, ruling them out for the entire 2025 season. Vieira, claimed from the Orioles, had a background of inconsistent performance in the majors, while Winder, once a highly regarded prospect, faced repeated injuries that hampered his development. Winder notably recorded a strong 2.63 ERA in the minors in 2021 but struggled with shoulder issues impacting his career trajectory. Both playersâ surgeries are significant setbacks for the Diamondbacks' pitching depth.
"Both right-handers Thyago Vieira and Josh Winder will require Tommy John surgery, sidelining them for the entire 2025 season, as confirmed by Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo."
"Winder, a former promising prospect, missed significant playing time due to persistent shoulder issues, which severely limited his performance and development in recent years."
