Cody Ponce To Visit Dr. Neal ElAttrache On Monday
Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Cody Ponce (knee) will visit Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles on Monday, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. The visit is scheduled one week after Ponce injured his knee during his March 30 start against the Colorado Rockies. While attempting to field a ground ball in the third inning, Ponce came up limp and, after a few steps, fell to the dirt in noticeable pain. He had to be carted off in what was his first MLB start since 2021. In 2.1 innings pitched, Ponce allowed one hit, one run, one walk, and recorded three strikeouts. His current diagnosis is a sprained right ACL. The 31-year-old's evaluation by Dr. ElAttrache should determine if surgery will be required and help to establish a timeline for recovery. Manager John Schneider said on Tuesday that Ponce can be expected to miss "a significant chunk of time." Ponce was placed on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday.
