Atlanta Braves right-hander Ian Anderson will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the remainder of the 2023 season according to a report by ESPN’s Jeff Passan. Anderson made just one start at Gwinnett, before going on the injured list.
Anderson was expected to compete for the Braves’ fifth starter spot during the spring, but was optioned to Gwinnett early after an up and down performance. He lasted just two thirds of an inning in his debut at Triple A where he allowed four hits, including three home runs. He was placed on the injured list shortly after with an elbow injury.
It appears that it will be the worst case scenario and Anderson will miss the remainder of the season. Passan’s report states that he is expected to return to action in 2024.
