"The Los Angeles Dodgers expected to have a formidable bullpen this season that included the additions of Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates, to go along with a group that featured the likes of Michael Kopech, Evan Phillips, Blake Treinen and Alex Vesia, among others. However, Kopech had a delayed start to the 2025 season, Treinen was inconsistent throughout the year, and Phillips only pitched in seven games before having Tommy John surgery."
"For Phillips, prior to his season-ending elbow surgery, he started the season on the 15-day injured list because of a right rotator cuff strain. He was activated April 19 but landed back on the IL two and a half weeks later because of right forearm discomfort. Phillips went on to have Tommy John on June 4 and posted a video to his Instagram account of playing catch Wednesday for the first time since the procedure."
