Willy Adames has been diagnosed with a moderate UCL sprain in his left elbow.

It doesn’t sound like Adames will require surgery to address the issue, but he’s headed for a second opinion before that decision is made. It certainly seems like his season is over. The 30-year-old hit the shelf with an elbow sprain earlier this week. It’ll most likely be Christian Koss filling in at shortstop until trade deadline acquisition Marcelo Mayer is ready to return from the injured list.
