Rangers Prospect Alejandro Rosario Likely to Miss 2025 Season with Elbow Injury

Right-handed Rangers pitching prospect Alejandro Rosario is expected to miss the entire 2025 season due to an elbow injury, according to president of baseball operations Chris Young. Rosario will require surgery, although Young did not provide specific details on the procedure. The injury is believed to be related to Rosario's ulnar collateral ligament (UCL), a common injury for pitchers that often necessitates Tommy John surgery.
​
Young stated, "It's likely UCL. I don't want to officially say, but yeah, it's elbow and will probably require Tommy John." This unfortunate development is a significant setback for Rosario, who had been showing promise in the Rangers' farm system. As the team prepares for the upcoming season, they will need to adjust their plans in light of Rosario's absence and the impact it may have on their pitching depth.
