Rockies Starter Antonio Senzatela to Return Monday from Tommy John Surgery

A Long Road to Recovery

It's been a long road back for Rockies starter Antonio Senzatela, who is set to return to the mound Monday after undergoing Tommy John surgery in September 2021. The 27-year-old right-hander missed the entire 2022 season as he rehabbed from the procedure.

A Promising Prospect

Senzatela was a promising prospect for the Rockies before his injury. In 2021, he went 4-6 with a 4.09 ERA in 18 starts. He also struck out 90 batters in 98.1 innings pitched.

A Welcome Addition

Senzatela's return is a welcome addition to a Rockies rotation that has struggled in recent years. The team finished with the worst ERA in the National League in 2022, and they are hoping that Senzatela can help them improve that mark in 2023.
