Orioles right-hander Zach Eflin has successful Tommy John surgery

Baltimore Orioles pitcher Zach Eflin has completed Tommy John surgery, sidelining him for the remainder of the season. The right-handed pitcher underwent the procedure following an injury sustained during his last appearance on the mound. This surgical intervention, commonly performed on baseball players experiencing elbow ligament damage, typically requires an extended recovery period of 12-18 months. The Orioles organization is focusing on Eflin's long-term health while adjusting their rotation strategy for the remainder of the campaign.
