Im hearing from people Jason Torres tore a ligament in his arm. This is absolutely terrible for him and this programs future

He will likely be out next season as well

 

[IndayArtHauz]

Good lord. Terrible for the young man.

 

[Brains]

Awful

For those also reading this. I ask Jordan Vargas about his past injury and he told me it was Tendonitis and tightness in his elbow.

Feel for him.

On the more positive side, he could be back, especially as a DH, by early next season: “The gold standard is a reconstruction, which is taking a ligament and remaking it, and that just takes time to heal and become a new ligament,” Dr. Stein said. “Most of the time, it’s about a year recovery, although for position players it can be under a year. That’s why they’re saying about 9-to-10 months. That’s really for throwing.

“You can get back a little bit earlier on hitting because there’s less torque across the elbow with the hitting motion.”

I realize Renzo was also pitching, but the odds of losing both your 1B to an elbow ligament in the same season have to be astronomically low.

Like Tommy John? He can DH and miss little to no time next year. Bryce Harper just did it

By the dramatics of OP I thought the arm was getting amputated

 

[Plymouth99]

I don't recall him getting hurt during game action? This team is cursed... Scanlon, now Torres.

Really sucks for Torres and the team. Will really really really suck if injuries are used as the why JD gets more time excuse…

This is accurate. Shohei is proof of that.

It shouldn't. Cyr was lost for half the season, but even when he was in, the freefall was well underway. Torres was lost near the end of the season. There were some bullpen injuries, but nothing more than the usual season attrition. Plus, all three weekend starters have been available, if not always present.

Ohtani had surgery in September and was DH’ing by Spring Training.

Unless it’s more than a UCL and Tommy Juan, he’ll be ok and should pretty easily be ready for next season to hack.
