Greene Out for Season After Tommy John | Cincinnati Reds News

Hunter Greene’s MLB career just took a major hit as he underwent Tommy John surgery for the second time — this one on his right elbow, sidelining him for the rest of 2026 and likely much of 2027. The Reds’ top pitching prospect, drafted second overall in 2017, has battled injuries since his 2022 debut, missing time every season. Despite that, he delivered his best year in 2024 with 150+ innings and 169 strikeouts — and still posted a solid 2.76 ERA last year despite two IL stints. Now, with this latest setback, fans are left wondering how long it’ll take for the ace to return to form. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
