Twins' Tyler Mahle: Set for surgery Monday

Mahle (elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery Monday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Mahle will undergo the reconstructive surgery and miss not just the rest of the 2023 season, but a large portion of the 2024 season. Once healthy, the right-hander should be a rotation option again for the Twins, and the success rate of hurlers who come back from Tommy John surgery does suggest there's still a good chance for long-term success for Mahle.
