Twins' Matt Canterino: Needs Tommy John surgery

Canterino (elbow) is set to undergo Tommy John surgery later this month, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.

Before being shut down in late June with a right elbow strain, Canterino turned in a 1.83 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 50:22 K:BB over 34.1 innings. He made two rehab starts in the rookie-level Florida Complex League late last month before he was shut down again. With the Twins determining that surgery is now necessary for the right-hander, he'll miss the remainder of the 2022 campaign and likely all of the 2023 season.
