Rea was placed on the 60-day disabled list on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Rea underwent Tommy John surgery in November and will miss the entirety of the 2017 season. His move to the 60-day DL opened a roster spot for recent signee Jered Weaver.

Rea (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Thursday, Dennis Lin of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The hope was that Rea would be able to avoid Tommy John surgery with PRP treatments and rest and rehab, but after he felt discomfort while throwing earlier this week, the decision was made to send him for the procedure. Rea is hoping to be ready for the start of the 2018 season. He was infamously traded to Miami then traded right back to San Diego at the deadline after reporting elbow soreness in his debut with the Marlins.

Rea (elbow) is on schedule in his recovery from a partially torn UCL in his pitching elbow, the Padres' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

If he's healthy enough to do so, Rea could appear in a few Arizona Fall League games before the short offseason league wraps up in November. For now, the Padres are hoping that Rea can avoid Tommy John surgery, but the team has a Dec. 1 deadline for him to be completely healthy before reconsidering the procedure. If healthy, Rea will be in the mix for a rotation spot during spring training.

Rea (elbow) could be ready to start a throwing program later this week, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rea will move to instructional leagues for rehab once he is ready. He isn't expected to return to the majors in 2016, but it sounds like his elbow is healing up well enough from platelet-rich plasma therapy that he could be ready for spring training in 2017.

After meeting with Dr. James Andrews, Rea has opted to get a PRP injection Thursday and forgo Tommy John surgery for now, the San Diego Union-Tribune's Dennis Lin reports.

EDGE Analysis

It was previously reported that Rea was slated for Tommy John surgery, but he will try to pursue alternate means of getting back on the mound. After receiving the PRP injection in his elbow, Rea will rest for three-to-four weeks before beginning a throwing program, so he is still slated to miss the rest of the 2016 season. This will be a situation to follow into the offseason, as Rea could still end up needing Tommy John surgery, but he was going to end up missing all of the 2017 season regardless of whether he had surgery now or in three or four months.

Rea (elbow) will need to undergo Tommy John surgery, and is expected to miss the entire 2017 season as a result, Bill Center of Padres.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is an unfortunate break for Rea who was just traded to the Marlins. He only managed one start with the club. He posted a 4.98 ERA with the Padres in 18 starts prior to the trade. Rea will be 28 at the start of the 2018 season.

The Marlins will send Rea (eblow) back to the Padres, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear how this will impact the trade made between the two teams on July 29, but Rosenthal reports that Cashner will remain with the Marlins. Rea left the game on Saturday with an elbow injury and is scheduled for an MRI on Monday.

Rea (elbow) is scheduled to undergo a MRI on Monday, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rea was placed on the disabled list Sunday with an elbow sprain, but it sounds as if the Marlins want to get a closer look at the elbow of their recent acquisition. Teams tend to fear the worst in this type of situation, and if the injury turns out to be a long-term concern, the Marlins will have ultimately gotten all of 3.1 innings out of Rea following the July 29 trade.

Rea (elbow) was placed on the 15-day DL on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Rea was an early exit from Saturday's contest due to elbow soreness, and now the newly-acquired asset will land on the DL after less than four innings as a Marlin. A specific diagnosis has yet to arrive, so until then, it's tough to determine how much time Rea could potentially miss. In the meantime, Nefi Ogando was recalled from Triple-A New Orleans to take his spot on the roster.

Rea left Saturday's game in the fourth inning with right elbow soreness, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He was cruising early in his Marlins debut, retiring 10 of the 11 batters he faced, but he left abruptly after striking out Jedd Gyorko to begin the fourth. Rea's being labeled as day-to-day for now, but that's probably tentative pending additional testing. The Marlins have options, including Jose Urena, Justin Nicolino and David Phelps, if Rea is forced to miss additional time.
