The Dodgers reported on the 29th that Gonsolin’s Tommy John surgery.

The surgery will also take place on September 1 at the Kerlan-Jove Orthopedic Clinic (KJOC) under Dr. Neil Elatrache’s house.

Gonsolin was previously on the injured list on the 20th, citing inflammation of his right arm and forearm.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts explained at the time that Gonzalez was in a difficult situation to return within the season. With Tommy John’s surgery, it is difficult to return beyond this season until 2024.

He contributed to winning the 2020 World Series and was named the first All-Star in 2022.
