Braves pitcher Paco Rodriguez (elbow) will miss the entirety of the 2016 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery recently, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Rodriguez's surgery went unannounced for a little while, but the young hurler has now been ruled out for next season already. When healthy, Rodriguez could be an option for the Braves' starting rotation, but it's unclear how long it will be before that's the case.
