Robbie Ray To Miss Remainder Of Season Due To Flexor Tendon Surgery

By Darragh McDonald | April 26, 2023 at 11:25pm CDT

Mariners left-hander Robbie Ray will undergo flexor tendon repair surgery, reports Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times. Ray will not be able to return this season. The lefty had already been on the 15-day injured list due to a flexor strain but Divish adds that further testing revealed damage in a different area of the tendon.

The news is obviously terrible for both Ray and the Mariners, as he was a key part of the club’s plans for this year. After an up-and-down career with the Tigers and Diamondbacks, Ray stabilized himself in tremendous fashion with the Blue Jays in 2021. He had always had tremendous strikeout ability but struggled with command, walking 11% of batters he faced in his career by the end of the 2020 campaign. But the 2021 season saw him whittle that down to 6.7% while still getting punchouts at an incredible 32.1% clip. He finished the season with a 2.84 ERA and was awarded the American League Cy Young.

That breakout was perfectly timed, as he went into free agency immediately after, signing a five-year, $115MM deal with the Mariners with an opt-out after the third season. Last year, he naturally regressed from his incredible heights of the year before, but still had a solid year with Seattle. He made 32 starts and posted a 3.71 ERA, striking out 27.4% of opponents while walking 8%. That helped the club break their postseason drought, as they qualified for the playoffs for the first time since 2001. Unfortunately, 2023 season will now go down as a total loss, effectively. Ray made one start of just 3 1/3 innings before landing on the injured list and that will now be his entire tally for the year.

The Mariners have had six viable starters since their deadline acquisition of Luis Castillo last year, which bumped Chris Flexen into the bullpen. With Castillo, Ray, George Kirby, Logan Gilbert and Marco Gonzales set to be in the front five spots, it had been speculated by many that perhaps the club would look to trade Flexen in order to improve another area of the roster. In the end, they kept all six hurlers, a decision which now seems wise in the wake of Ray’s injury. Flexen has struggled so far this year, currently sporting an 8.86 ERA, but was plenty effective for the M’s in the two prior seasons.

This won’t impact the Mariners in the short term as they were already operating without Ray, but this will have a huge impact on their long-term plans now that a return of Ray later in the year is off the table. They have depth options on the 40-man such as Darren McCaughan, José Rodríguez and Easton McGee, but Divish relays word from manager Scott Servais that the club is re-evaluating their pitching depth in the wake of this news. The last time they needed a spot start, veteran journeyman Tommy Milone was given the nod.

Finding external pitching options at this time of the year can be tough as most teams are dealing with injuries of their own and few have decided to press the sell button so early. The free agents that are unsigned are usually still available because they haven’t been effective in a while. That’s certainly the case for Madison Bumgarner, who was just released by the Diamondbacks today, joining pitchers like Dallas Keuchel and Chris Archer on the open market.

The Mariners are currently 11-12 and in fourth place in the American League West, though they are by no means buried with just 2.5 games separating them and the division-leading Rangers. There’s still plenty of time for them to gain ground, but they will now have to do so without any contributions from their player making the highest salary this year.

      Loosing Ray is the death blow to the Mariners season! Rodriguez has come back to earth and their relief pitching has dropped a notch along with a starting staff and lineup that is just slightly above average! Making the playoffs is going to be tuff with the Rangers and Angels dramatically better! RIP Mariner fans!

          Let me help u out. Urshella, Renfro, Drury, Estevez, and Moore. All 5 additions looking solid.

          It sucks thou losing players for the year. My Angels lost one to in O’Hoppe. You can’t have to many of those, and it not effect your chances. You can get by with a few of those 2 to 4 week injuries thou. But both teams should be fine, if this is as bad as it gets.

          You forgot Quijada. He’s had one bad outing, but was lights out before that.

          I wouldn’t have put Drury in that list of good pickups, but the guy appears to have woken up in the last week or so.

          As long as Nevin minimizes the use of Loup, Wantz and Herget, the bullpen should be decent — I spent a little time on Tues going over the bullpen stats, and those are the three that have done the worst at keeping inherited runners from scoring. My previous worry about Moore was completely unfounded as someone had called me out on.

          One thing that needs to be done is swapping Suarez for Davidson. Honestly can’t imagine Davidson would do any worse. Barria is doing well in the bullpen and should be kept there, and I think Silseth should remain in the bullpen for the meantime.

        Or perhaps it was the extra work he did trying to utilize a new pitch in the offseason. Frankly the bitter cold weather in his first (and only start) had more to do with his injury than the 4 or 5 innings he pitched in the playoffs.

      He was clearly straining through his max effort delivery in 2021. The results were often strong, but he clearly looked like a guy shooting to get a big deal at year’s end by giving everything he could to blow guys away.

      Only surprise is that he avoided surgical repair this long. Seems to be a guy with great pain tolerance, but I’m not sure his pedal to the metal drive served his health well enough that the recovery on this may not end up as smooth as others’.

      Some guys make surprising comebacks, but this case would be surprising if he gets back to all-star form — nevermind Cy Young form — ever again.

        Throwing a forkball / split finger puts a lot of excess stress on the forearm and elbow. That is a main reason why you don’t see many young players throwing it… most young arms are not developed / strong enough to consistently throw it well.. I am sure M’s coaches thought Ray’s arm was strong enough… BUT THEY WERE WRONG.
        They better be monitoring Gilbert closer than they watched Ray.

      They’re not using Flex properly. He’s decent when you stick him in the rotation and leave him alone, but he not really a swing guy that bounces from rotation to bullpen. Personally, I would have kept him and dealt Marco Gonzales for either prospects or bullpen help.

      • myaccount2

        I wouldn’t say he’s really “bounced” between SP/RP. He was moved out of the rotation when we traded for Castillo and suddenly had a surplus of SP, excelled as a reliever, and when our surplus shrank was moved back to SP. I don’t expect he’ll be touched unless we don’t suffer any more rotation injuries or he continues to struggle…in which case he could be replaced with Miller, Hancock, or Dollard.

        You realize Marco has been good, right?

        Flexen only made one long-relief appearance (relieving Ray) before sliding right back into the rotation on the same amount of rest.

      Flex is fine. I’ve seen the same Flex as always just maybe a little bit off in the command department. But he’s still competing like a mother every single at bat. The stuff looks the same. He’s never had great or even very good stuff: he’s just a pitcher. Good hitting teams will tattoo him every once in while, he’s just one of those guys

        His cutter is his one plus pitch and it’s been awful this year. Instead of commanding it on the corners, it has been catching too much of the plate and has been hammered.

          Yup, when the cutter isn’t cutting he’s gonna get rocked. The M’s took away his curveball this off-season as well, which he rarely threw; but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him work that thing back in occasionally. IMO, the more pitches in the arsenal for him the better.
          But they seem intent on making him a 4 seam/cutter/slider guy with the Change up sprinkled in, at least early on this year.

          Although, he hasn’t gotten himself into as many good counts as you like, and thus the slider is his least used pitch so far. He’s gotta get ahead with that 4 seam/cutter string; then he can PULL the string with a very decent change up and slider when he’s ahead. It’s a very simple formula that he’s usually pretty consistent with.

      The result is still the same: Out for the season. This is really a tough blow. I’m hoping the M’s and O’s will make it at least to WC. Hey, when your team is the White Sox, you have to have someone to cheer for.

        @Avenger, the same for 2023, meaning he’ll miss the remainder of the season. Reported recovery time on a flexor tendon surgery is more in the six month range, so he’ll be back in 2024. If he had TJS, he would miss a significant portion of 2024, if not all of the season, based on a recovery time of 14-16 months.

        Bad either way. TJS, however, would be worse. My concern is he’ll have flexor tendon surgery, and then we’ll find out he also needs TJS in 2024!

      I just had flexor tendon surgery. I’m hoping to be back in six months, but I’m in my early 60s. Robbie Ray might bounce back more quickly.
      I asked my surgeon if I’ll still be able to throw my slider on the outside corner, and he said, “Only if you’re ahead in the count.”

        There’s a good and bad side to that. Dipoto tends to take the FIRST deal that comes around rather than the BEST deal. There’s an old adage that “a good decision today is better than a perfect decision tomorrow”, but given that this is a spot that needs to be filled for the rest of the season, Dipoto needs to take his time and make sure he gets the right starter to fill it.

          And for the record, I really like Hancock. I simply think he will see considerably more minor league starts before Seattle asks him to start.

          McCaughan or Milone are probably the most likely starters to take Flexen’s place if they make a change within the next week or so.

          Long term, Woo has easily been the most consistent and dominant of the Mariner starter prospects and could be a June call-up.. Miller’s first 3 starts didn’t go so well, but he was solid in his 4th outing.

          Hopefully Flexen will get it together quickly, as the next month could get a bit rough otherwise.

      “Hancock is a stud”…Admittedly, I don’t have time to watch much minor league baseball, but you don’t get drafted top ten(#6 overall in 2020) without many people feeling you are an excellent pitcher/player.. Two months before the ’20 draft there was talk of him going #1 overall.

      His scouting report suggests he has 3 plus pitches(60 grade) with a FB touching mid to high 90’s.. He IS the M’s #2 prospect after all, not exactly chopped liver.

    I really hope Gausman turns out the way that they live for the rest of their live’s regretting it. What a hunch of idiots !

      Was thinking about this as well. As a Jays fan I was quietly hoping at the time they wouldn’t sign Ray long term. When they signed Gausman I was ecstatic but kept quiet because I knew I was in the minority and would be deemed an idiot.

        you weren’t an idiot. I was happy they didn’t sign Ray. Don’t get me wrong his Cy Young season was awesome but his previous track record showed nowhere near the dominance he showed in his CY Young season. Perfect timing to cash in on a big contract and I was glad the Jays didn’t get him. Gausman has been so much better.

    Give Ureña a shot. It’ll take several weeks to get Archer or Keuchel MLB ready and Bumgardner needs a couple months of therapy before getting on a big league mound

    Please get rid of Wong, might do better with no second baseman and 8 batters.

      I look at this as more of an opportunity. The season is still early, plenty of upstarts around just needing to get a start.

    Hooray for the Mariners backup plan- good thing they kept Flexen as a 6th starter. If all goes well, Ms fans may in fact go from hooray to who Ray?

    I think Ray would have better served in the pen. He has a good strikeout pitch but his control is not good, as in good enough I’m picky.

      Instead of the pen, he’ll be in the pokey, sadly

    Ironically it’ll be Flexen replacing the Flexor

    I wasn’t too sure about the Blue jays picking Gausman over Ray that offseason. Quite the different directions each of those deals have gone so far.

    Eduardo Rodriguez becomes more valuable every week. At some point, the Tigers need to unload him.

    I’m not a doctor, but in 2021 Ray pitched a career high in innings, strike outs, quality starts and innings pitched per start… His four seamer went from 94MPH down to 92 this year.
