The Detroit Tigers could have a significant problem on their hands as they try to navigate how they are going to get innings for the rest of the year. On Wednesday evening, the team delivered the devastating news that their young rookie star Jackson Jobe is undergoing Tommy John surgery after missing the last several weeks.

Detroit Tigers right-handed starting pitcher Jackson Jobe will undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the remainder of the 2025 Major League Baseball season, the club announced on Wednesday. Jobe has been sidelined since late May with a strained flexor tendon in his pitching elbow.

"He’s a very determined individual, and I have no question he’s going to work through this process," said Tigers general manager Jeff Greenberg.
