Ivey will miss the rest of the season due to a nerve issue in his elbow, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
He had apparently been pitching hurt for quite some time and finally spoke up about it since nothing was working for him. While he suffered a Grade 1 UCL strain in 2019, there is reportedly no damage to his UCL this time around. However, Ivey may require Thoracic Outlet Syndrome surgery, which is a very significant procedure for a pitcher. The best-case scenario is that he is healthy for spring training next year, but he could be sidelined longer than that.
