Pirates Right-Hander Jared Jones to Miss 2025 Season After Undergoing Elbow Surgery
- Pittsburgh Pirates right-handed pitcher Jared Jones will miss the entire 2025 season after undergoing right elbow surgery on May 21, 2025, in Bradenton, Florida.
- Jones experienced elbow discomfort starting in March 2025 which failed to improve despite rehab efforts, leading to the decision for surgery after a setback during long toss at 100 feet.
- Jones, age 23, did not pitch in the 2025 season after sustaining a UCL sprain and is expected to miss 10 to 12 months, making a return before Opening Day 2026 unlikely.
- As a rookie in 2024, Jones made 22 starts with a 6-8 record, 4.14 ERA, 132 strikeouts, and a 3.38 strikeout-to-walk ratio over 121.2 innings pitched, demonstrating his role as a rotation fixture.
- The surgery and extended absence remove Jones from the 2025 rotation, prompting the Pirates to rely on pitchers like Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller, and prospect Bubba Chandler in his place.
