US EditionAstros Right-Hander Hayden Wesneski Set for Season-Ending Tommy John Elbow Surgery
- Houston Astros right-handed pitcher Hayden Wesneski, 27, is scheduled to have surgery to repair his elbow ligament, a procedure announced on May 18, 2025, in Arlington, Texas.
- Wesneski’s surgery follows a right elbow injury that caused him to be skipped in the rotation and placed on the 15-day injured list after his last start in a 4-3 loss at Milwaukee.
- He became a member of the Astros through a trade during the offseason that involved Kyle Tucker moving to the Cubs, and in 2024, he made 28 appearances, including seven starts, posting a 1-3 record with a 4.50 ERA.
- Wesneski reported feeling improved during his time in Milwaukee, but experienced swelling after returning to Houston, and he is scheduled to have surgery in Dallas performed by the medical doctor affiliated with the Texas Rangers, Dr. Keith Meister.
- The procedure likely will sideline Wesneski until late in the 2026 season, marking a significant setback in his over four big league seasons of pitching.
