March 25, 2026
Atlanta placed Young (elbow) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.
Analysis
Young is unlikely to be ready to make his season debut for Atlanta until later this summer while he works his way back from Tommy John surgery, which he underwent back in May. The southpaw reliever could be shifted to the 60-day IL at some point when Atlanta needs to open up another spot on the 40-man roster.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could undergo Tommy John surgery
PNew York Mets
May 2, 2025
Young could consider undergoing Tommy John surgery due to his recent elbow injury, according to Tim Healey of Newsday.
Analysis
The Mets placed Young on the 15-day injured list April 30 with an elbow sprain, and the organization is considering all the options available for the reliever, including Tommy John. That would sideline Young for the rest of the 2025 season and possibly for the entire 2026 campaign as well. Young signed a minor-league deal with New York during the 2023 offseason.
