Arizona's Shelby Miller undergoes Tommy John surgery

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Shelby Miller underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery on Wednesday.

What It Means:

Miller is expected to miss the rest of the 2017 season and the first half of the 2018 season as he recovers from the surgery. He has a 5.78 ERA over 24 starts with the D-backs, so hopefully the 26-year-old right-hander can come back stronger from the surgery next summer.

Miller finished 2017 with a 2-2 record, a 4.09 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 20.2 strikeout percentage in 22 innings pitched this season.
