"Twins right-hander Pablo López will have Tommy John surgery on Wednesday, per Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic. Earlier this week, it was the Twins revealed that he had tearing in his right elbow's ulnar collateral ligament. He took a few days to explore a second opinion but it seems there was no avoiding the worst-case scenario. It'll be the second Tommy John procedure for López."
"His first was more than a decade ago. He'll miss the entire 2026 season and hope to be ready early in the 2027 campaign, which will be the final season of his four-year, $73.5MM contract with the Twins. More to come."
