PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Pirates’ right-handed pitcher Jared Jones has undergone elbow surgery and will not return in 2025. The 23-year-old Jones initially complained of elbow pain in mid-March. The decision to have surgery came after Jones complained of discomfort in the elbow during his rehab. The extent of the damage to the elbow wasn’t initially known. Though the team has not put a firm timetable on a possible return, Jones will be out for at least the remainder of this season. The 23-year-old Jones made the Pirates out of spring training in 2024 and pitched well, going 6-8 with a 4.14 ERA
