Johnny Cueto, San Francisco Giants/Jordan Montgomery, New York Yankees Call it forearm tightness or elbow inflammation; semantics don't matter. These two players find themselves in danger of Tommy John surgery. Both are shut down for now and could be at least a month away from pitching if they receive good news. For Cueto, this problem stems back to July 2017 when he missed significant time in July and August with a similar injury.
