Lance Lynn's ulnar collateral ligament: In Memoriam

We've seen the last of Lance Lynn's elbow ligament. How much more will we see of him?

I don't remember exactly where I was the first time I saw Lance Lynn's ulnar collateral ligament, but I seem to recall it was underneath his skin, connecting his forearm to his humerus, and he was exerting a horrific force on it by pitching a baseball.

Yesterday, Lynn's UCL was removed via Tommy John surgery, and he was likely removed from at least the 2016 season. So it seems like a good time to look back at what we've seen from Lynn and speculate a little about what we might see when he returns.
