Summary
Dodgers reliever Evan Phillips will undergo Tommy John surgery, sidelining him for the remainder of this season and potentially all of 2026, as announced by manager Dave Roberts. After a strong start to the season, Phillips faced arm issues, leading to his placement on the injured list and eventual diagnosis of a torn rotator cuff tendon. With 14 pitchers currently on the injured list, the Dodgers may consider a non-tender option for Phillips, who is eligible for arbitration next offseason, but could pursue a backloaded deal to retain him for the future.
