Phillies’ Bryce Harper will have surgery next week

Bryce Harper will have elbow surgery next Wednesday. Harper injured his right elbow in April and spent the rest of the season as a designated hitter. The operation may affect Harper's 2023 season.

Harper finished with a .286 average, 18 home runs and 65 RBI and made his first all-star game as a Phillie. The two months he was injured helped the team get back into the postseason race. Dombrowski would like Harper to return to right field.
