Seranthony Dominguez Undergoes Tommy John Surgery

By Jeff Todd | July 30, 2020 at 1:09pm CDT

Phillies righty Seranthony Dominguez has undergone Tommy John surgery, the club announced. He had long battled with elbow issues.

With the news, the reliever will all but assuredly miss most of the 2021 season. It’s certainly possible he could make it back late in the year, depending upon how aggressive a timeline he pursues, but it’d be hard to count on.

The news makes it quite possible that the Phils will non-tender Dominguez when the time comes. He stands to reach arbitration eligibility as a Super Two after the campaign. It won’t cost all that much to keep Dominguez, but it’ll be tough to tie up the roster spot throughout the offseason. Then again, the 25-year-old did throw 58 innings of 2.95 ERA ball in his debut season of 2018.

In other news, lefty Cristopher Sanchez will join the Phillies’ 60-man player pool. The 23-year-old is already on the 40-man roster, so he can now be called upon in the majors at any point if there’s a need. Sanchez has just one appearance under his belt over the High-A level. Last season, he worked to a 2.26 ERA with 8.7 K/9 and 3.1 BB/9 in 75 2/3 total minor-league frames.

    What a waste. Would have been better signing me. And what took so long for his surgery? Idiots

    Apparently this bears repeating but you can’t perform surgery on a ligament that isn’t broken. Strains and pains are one thing, but there’s no such thing as a preemptive surgery. You wouldn’t just get your kidneys removed in case you might develop stones later in life.

      Actually, yes there is such a thing as preemptive surgery. Women prone to breast cancer often get mastectomies. I’m not sure if they’d do it preemptively for TJS, but the notion that preemptive surgeries don’t exist is incorrect.

      Years ago, some orthopedic surgeons reported that parents would bring their uninjured children in for TJS, believing it would improve their pitching velocity and performance.
