Robby Snelling to Visit With Specialist on Thursday
Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling (elbow) is scheduled to visit with Dr. Keith Meister in Texas on Thursday, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. Snelling made his major-league debut on May 8 in a loss against the Washington Nationals and was then placed on the 15-day injured list last Wednesday with a UCL sprain in his left elbow. The 22-year-old is out indefinitely and could need season-ending surgery on his elbow, depending on what Meister finds during his examination on Thursday. If Snelling gets good news and doesn't need to go under the knife, he still probably won't be an option to rejoin Miami's starting rotation until around the All-Star break in mid-July or later. After Snelling's injury, the Fish called up fellow lefty starter Braxton Garrett to join the rotation, but he disappointed in his 2026 debut and allowed five earned runs on five walks and three strikeouts against the Minnesota Twins on May 14 in just 1 1/3 innings pitched. Snelling is currently rostered in less than 10% of Yahoo leagues after his injury.
