Baltimore Orioles pitcher Zach Eflin underwent Tommy John surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament, effectively ending his 2026 season. Despite a strong start on March 31, he was placed on the injured list due to elbow discomfort and later transferred to the 60-day IL. Eflin, who re-signed for a one-year, $10 million contract, struggled in 2025, posting a 5.93 ERA. The Orioles now have four healthy starters and potential options in Dean Kremer and Brandon Young.
