Dodgers’ Evan Phillips to Have Season-Ending Tommy John Surgery

  • Dodgers reliever Evan Phillips, a 30-year-old right-hander, will undergo Tommy John surgery on Wednesday, ending his 2025 season.
  • Phillips struggled with right elbow inflammation since May 5 and did not respond to rest or a platelet-rich plasma injection given two weeks ago.
  • Phillips appeared in the early stages of last season's playoffs but was not included on the World Series roster after suffering a partial rotator cuff tear during that time.
  • Manager Dave Roberts called Phillips' injury "surprising" and General Manager Brandon Gomes said losing his quality and impact on the team "is going to hurt."
  • Phillips is expected to return around next season's All-Star break, while the Dodgers navigate challenges from multiple injured pitchers and roster adjustments.
