Frankie Montas Injury: Shut down for season

Montas' UCL injury in his right elbow is season ending with Tommy John surgery being considered, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports Saturday.

Montas was placed on the injured list earlier Saturday with a UCL injury that manager Carlos Mendoza called "pretty significant." At this point, it's unclear how long he'll be sidelined, but the Mets have already ruled him out for the remainder of 2025. If Montas requires Tommy John surgery, he'll likely also be sidelined for the full 2026 campaign.
