Luke Jackson Undergoes Tommy John Surgery
3 years agoAtlanta Braves relief pitcher Luke Jackson (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery on Wednesday. The right-hander tore an ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. He will miss the entirety of the 2022 season. If his rehabilitation goes smoothly, he could be back in the majors at some point around the midpoint of the 2023 season. The 30-year-old was a strong bullpen arm for the Braves last year, pitching to a 1.98 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP. He led all Braves pitchers with 31 holds last season.
