Baltimore Orioles infielder Jordan Westburg underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow on Friday according to an industry source and multiple reports.
The 27-year old -- who played in the 2024 All-Star game -- suffered a right oblique injury early in spring training. As he was rehabbing from that injury, he experienced discomfort while throwing and was shut down from all baseball activities.
Westburg opted for a PRP injection on Feb. 20 and was ramping up his throwing progression in Florida before getting shut down earlier this month. He met with Dr. Neal ElAttrache and team doctors on Monday before deciding to have the surgery.
Since becoming a full-time starter for the Orioles in 2024, Westburg has been outstanding when he has been on the field. He posted a .792 OPS in 107 games in 2024, hitting 26 doubles, 18 home runs and driving in 63 runs. But he fractured his right hand after being hit by a pitch on July 31 and missed nearly two months.
Westburg saw time at second base and third base in 2023-24, but became the Orioles' regular third baseman in 2025. He hit 17 home runs in 85 games, but suffered left hamstring, left index finger and right ankle injuries.
For his career, he owns a slash line of .264/.312/.456 with a .768 OPS in 260 games.
Westburg is regarded as an above-average fielder, with a career fielding percentage of .983.
Coby Mayo, 24, has seen the bulk of time at third base for the Orioles and he is slashing .174/.242/.321 in 37 games this season.
