The 35-year-old has injured an elbow and will need surgery, according to general manager Ross Atkins' comments by Sportsnet.

The left-hander didn't have the best start to the season, allowing 11 runs in seven-and-a-third innings over two games before seeing his name added to the injured list for the first time. He had even been returned to the AAA level, in order to get back into shape, which seemed to do him the greatest good. He had maintained a 1.72 ERA in three starts in May after his recall.
