Tanner Whit - Tommy John

[Pickle_Nuts]

Dang it!

let’s hope he heals well and has a chance to play again soon.

That sucks and if he does in fact have surgery probably means his college career is over as recovery likely isn’t until summer 2023 and he would be draft eligible at that point and I suspect a high enough round pick to take money and go pro.

No. 1 Texas baseball loses starting pitcher Tanner Witt for the rest of the 2022 season

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!

Well then; May his surgery be successful, and his recovery complete.

Lucas Gordon = the heir apparent to the 3rd/Sunday starter spot.

Mid week starter spots are wide open for whomever will grab them.

Terrible news for the team and for Tanner.

 

[Jacob Johnson]

I feel so bad for him as he was due for a big season now with that being said that’s a big loss for our team. I have no clue who’s going to be our 3rd but even more our bullpen will have to really step up.

Thank goodness this seems a better year pitcher line up wise than many in the past

 

[mchammer]

The young guys will get seasoning. We have better bats this year. We are set up for success but likely lose 5-6 more games this year than if Witt wasn’t injured.

 

[STHAustin]

Tanner was upbeat in his Twitter post, which made me feel a little better for him. It must be a terrible disappointment. We're still in good shape to win 3-game series--just maybe not so many sweeps.

It’s Witt not Whit

This team needs to learn from adversity.
