Before heading to the IL in early July, Jameson was one of the more reliable arms in the Diamondbacks bullpen. Through 40 innings, Drey posted a 3.32 ERA and struck out 37 batters.

Jameson was drafted by the Diamondbacks in the first round of the 2019 draft. Overall, through two seasons, the 26-year-old holds a 6-1 record and a 2.63 ERA in his career.

The typical recovery for Tommy John is around 10–12 months, meaning unfortunately, Arizona will likely be without a key piece of their bullpen all of next season.
