San Diego Padres impending free-agent left-hander Nestor Cortes (biceps) had successful surgery to fix a small tendon tear in his left arm, according to Francys Romero. The 30-year-old Cuban southpaw is expected to return to baseball activities in roughly nine to 10 months. He will become a free agent at the conclusion of the World Series, but given his injury, he's expected to linger on the free-agent market going into the 2026 campaign. Cortes originally was put on the 15-day injured list by the Padres on Sept. 5 with a biceps injury, and now he will miss most, if not all, of next season. He made only two starts with the Milwaukee Brewers early in 2025 before getting hurt, and then he was traded to San Diego at the deadline over the summer. Overall, Cortes really struggled with the long ball, allowing 13 home runs in 34 1/3 innings while sporting a bloated 6.29 ERA and 1.63 WHIP in just eight starts combined.--Keith Hernandez
