- Corbin Burnes, a 30-year-old right-handed pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks, announced on Friday in Cincinnati he will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery.
- Burnes exited his Sunday start against the Washington Nationals due to right elbow tightness, prompting an MRI on Monday and a consultation with Dr. Neal ElAttrache later in Los Angeles.
- In December 2024, Burnes agreed to a $210 million deal spanning six years with the Arizona Diamondbacks and got off to an impressive beginning, recording a 2.66 ERA along with 63 strikeouts over 64.1 innings in 11 starts.
- Manager Torey Lovullo said, "We're all with Corbin right now," noting the decision involved many people and the team will rally around him this season.
- Burnes will miss the rest of the 2025 season, likely returning after the All-Star break next year, forcing Arizona to adjust its rotation amid a 31-31 record and a 6.5-game deficit in the NL West.
