As most followers of the Arizona Diamondbacks, and MLB in general, are aware by now, ace starting pitcher Corbin Burnes will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery next week, and will be out until at least late summer 2026.

Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes will have Tommy John surgery next week, manager Torey Lovullo announced Friday ( via the Arizona Republic ). Burnes exited his start this past weekend with an elbow injury and, after tests this week, received a UCL tear significant enough to require surgery.

Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Corbin Burnes is set to undergo Tommy John surgery, ending his season early in the first year of a six-year, $210 million contract.
