Arizona Diamondbacks coach Tori Lovullo announced on the 7th (Korea Standard Time) that "Cody Burns is scheduled to undergo surgery next week."
This is Tommy John surgery to reconstruct ligaments in his right elbow. Not to mention being out for the season, we don't know when he will be back for the next season.
Lovullo said, "That's really hard to hear. Burns is going to take a long time to heal and recover. But in the end, he'll come back. I'm sure he'll remain a great player for Arizona."
Burns is a right-handed pitcher acquired by Arizona for six years and 210 million U.S. dollars ahead of this season. The deal included conditions for the 2026 opt-out.

In the free agent market last year, Burns was the biggest fish among pitchers. Since 2020, he ranked third in innings (816 ⅔ innings), second in earned run average (2.88 among pitchers who threw 500 or more innings), second in strikeouts (946), and sixth in minimum number of homers (0.8) per nine innings in the Major League. His contribution to victory over substitute players in the FanGraphs and Baseball-Reference was 21.7 and 18.6, respectively, making him in the top five in the Major League.
He was named an All-Star for the fourth consecutive year. He ranked third in innings pitched in the American League, fifth in multiple wins, and fourth in ERA.
His team, the Baltimore Orioles, was unable to afford Burns' ransom. The San Francisco Giants and the Toronto Blue Jays engaged in a fierce battle to recruit Burns.
There was a surprise winner. Arizona was the main character.

Arizona, which signed Burns, has set a goal of advancing to the World Series by strengthening its starting lineup, which was its strength last year. ESPN, an American sports media outlet, said, "Arizona is trying to crack the National League, which is dominated by the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2023, Arizona defeated the Dodgers to advance to the World Series. Arizona is trying to recreate this by recruiting Burns," he said, explaining why Arizona recruited Burns.
Until his injury, Burns showed good performance this year. He recorded three wins, two losses and 63 strikeouts in 64 ⅓ innings in 11 games with an ERA of 2.66. He has been more dominant with an ERA of 1.67 in the recent seven games.
Arizona's goal of catching the Dodgers even with Burns was difficult to achieve. Currently, Arizona ranks fourth in the National League West. The gap between the top and the Dodgers is 6.5 games.
Before passing the Dodgers, he had to beat the San Diego Padres in second place and the San Francisco Giants in third place.
