Díaz Out Three Months After Elbow Surgery as Abel’s Breakout Hits IL
Edwin Díaz is set to miss about three months after elbow surgery to remove loose bodies, forcing the Dodgers to lean on a closer-by-committee approach and reshaping the late-inning plan; Mick Abel’s strong run for the Phillies is halted by right elbow inflammation and a 15-day IL stint, likely sidelining him for weeks, while other notable injuries—Jhoan Duran and Daniel Palencia with left oblique strains and Sonny Gray’s hamstring —further scramble the early-season closer landscape.
