Riley is getting Tommy John surgery
"Lee Jung-hoo's Natural Enemy" is also out of the season.
New York local media "News Day" reported on the 22nd (Korea time) that New York Mets left-hander Brooks Reilly (35) will undergo Tommy John surgery.
Tommy John surgery, which reconstructs the damaged medial ligament of the elbow, requires rehabilitation for at least 12 months and as long as 18 months. The 2024 season is not available.안전놀이터
Earlier this month, the "New York Post" quoted sources as saying that Reilly obtained encouraging results from her first MRI examination immediately after listing the injured list, but anxiety increased during further examinations later.
They added that Reilly's elbow ligament is "minimal worn out" and that the injury is feared to be prolonged.
The timing is not right. The 2024 season is the year when his three-year contract with the Mets ends. He will enter the FA market while undergoing rehabilitation after surgery.
Considering the considerable age, it doesn't seem easy to find the next team.
Reilly had pitched well for the Mets this season with eight appearances, seven scoreless innings, three walks and nine strikeouts.
However, he was placed on the injured list due to an elbow injury, and it turned out that he had to be fixed by surgery.
Reilly played for the Lotte Giants in the KBO League from 2015 to 2019.
Lee was particularly strong during the period. He performed well 17 times with no hit, two walks and six strikeouts.
After Lee Jung-hoo's entry into the big league, attention was drawn to whether the relationship between the two could continue in the big league, but both players were eventually out of the season due to injuries, and the confrontation was futile.
