Hunter Greene to Undergo Elbow Surgery, Out Until July

AutoDraft Pro AI

Reds ace Hunter Greene will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove bone chips from his right elbow, sidelining him for 14-16 weeks. While his UCL remains intact, the procedure is a setback for the pitcher, who posted a 2.76 ERA in 19 starts last year. Andrew Abbott will replace him as the Opening Day starter. Greene will likely be placed on the 60-day IL, allowing the Reds to open a 40-man roster spot.
