Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berríos is expected to miss at least the next 12 months after undergoing elbow surgery, according to team and reporting. The surgery is described as Tommy John surgery, a procedure that involves replacing a damaged elbow ligament. The operation takes place on Wednesday, with a team spokesman confirming the timing. Both sources indicate that the injury and surgery mean Berríos will not return during the current season. After Tommy John surgery, recovery typically requires a minimum of about a year, though exact timelines can vary by player and rehabilitation progress. With that recovery window, the expectation is that Berríos’s next regular-season action would come no earlier than the following season. The team has not provided additional details beyond confirming the procedure and the anticipated recovery duration.
