HBT: Braves' Beachy has torn elbow ligament

Rough news for the Braves.

According to Mark Bowman of MLB.com, Brandon Beachy was diagnosed with a partial tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. He?ll be examined by Dr. James Andrews tomorrow, after which we should know more about his long-term status.

Obviously the big concern here is that Beachy will face Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery, but there?s a small chance he?ll attempt to rehab the injury. Either way, it?s safe to say he won?t be pitching for the Braves in the near future.

Beachy, 25, has a 3.07 ERA over his first 41 major league starts. He?s currently tied with R.A. Dickey for the major league lead with a 2.00 ERA.
