Max Meyer Stats

Miami Marlins right-hander Max Meyer (elbow) said that he will "start getting ready to throw here soon in a couple weeks." Meyer underwent Tommy John surgery last August after making his first two major-league starts in 2022. A return late in the 2023 season can't be ruled out, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect the 23-year-old to do much this year while recovering from elbow reconstruction. He is the team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and has a bright future ahead of him once his elbow injury is fully in the rearview mirror. Meyer's physique isn't exactly intimidating on the mound, but he has a nasty slider and has shown better command in recent seasons. He's a fine dynasty/keeper league stash for now.

Miami Marlins pitching prospect Max Meyer (elbow) will undergo Tommy John surgery by Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles in the near future after his MRI exam on Monday showed a tear in his UCL. Meyer was making just his second major league start when he was forced to leave the game with right elbow discomfort, and now he'll miss the rest of this season and most of 2023. It's a big blow for the team's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, after he gave up five earned runs on seven hits while striking out six and walking two in six innings in his first two MLB starts this year. In 13 starts with Single-A Jupiter and Triple-A Jacksonville this year, Meyer had a 3.69 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, 69 strikeouts and 19 walks in 61 innings pitched.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Max Meyer (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right elbow sprain. Meyer lasted just 2/3 of an inning in Saturday's start against Pittsburgh before leaving early with the elbow issue. He missed nearly a month in Triple-A earlier this season while dealing with elbow nerve irritation so it's troubling that the same injury has popped up again. Miami will play this cautiously so fantasy managers should expect the 23-year-old to be out for a while.
