This week, another two rather big names were added to the list, and had Tommy John.

Matt Moore (
drafted by Tampa Bay in the 8th round of the 2007 amateur draft) left mid game on Monday against the Royals with elbow soreness, and test reveal that he has a tear in his UCL. And will likely undergo Tommy John in the near future.
Jameson Taillon, drafted 2nd overall in 2010, announced that he will go under Tommy John surgery. Taillon is currently ranked 20th among current MLB prospects. The number of players that have already had Tommy John and are going to have it in the near future is growing continuously.
