Cincinnati Reds pitcher Hunter Greene is undergoing a second Tommy John surgery, a development reported by multiple outlets. The news comes as a major setback for the team’s pitching plans, with Greene’s recovery timeline expected to sideline him for an extended period.
Both sources note that Greene previously had the same procedure in 2019. The reports describe the surgery as a significant continuation of his medical history, indicating the Reds will need to plan for his absence based on how his elbow responds during recovery. While the coverage is focused on the impact to Cincinnati, it does not provide additional, outlet-specific details beyond confirming the second operation and referencing his earlier surgery.
