Good Morning, Birdland!
We already know that O’s closer Félix Bautista is going to miss all of 2024 as he recovers from Tommy John surgery. But all indications are that he will be fit and ready to go for the start of the 2025 season.
Apparently, that outlook has not been changed this week despite news that Bautista was undergoing a second procedure to further clean up his elbow.
More info:
-The procedures cleaned up scar tissue in elbow and moved the nerve to free it up from compression
-Others have had this after Tommy John surgery
-Bautista’s reconstructed right UCL still healing well.
