Stuart underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this week, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Stuart landed on the 60-day injured list July 14, and further tests on his right elbow revealed UCL damage that required Tommy John surgery. Stuart will miss the rest of the 2025 season, and given the recovery timeline for Tommy John surgery, he'll be out for most, if not all, of 2026.

Rotowire
Stuart (elbow) allowed four runs on four hits and four walks while striking out five over 3.2 innings Thursday against Double-A Reading.
Stuart began the season on the 7-day injured list due to an elbow injury, and he's back at Double-A after completing his rehab assignment. He looked a bit rusty in his first appearance for the Senators this season but should get an opportunity to bounce back later in the week.

Nationals' Tyler Stuart: Out with elbow injury
Rotowire
Stuart is on Triple-A Rochester's 7-day injured list due to an elbow injury, Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline reports.
The organization is hopeful it isn't a serious injury, but Stuart should still be considered out indefinitely. Acquired from the Mets in last year's Jesse Winker trade, Stuart is a 6-foot-9 righty whose extension makes up for low-90s fastball velocity. His best pitch is his sweeper, but none of his offerings are near plus. Stuart had success last year at Double-A, but he gave up 14 runs in 16.2 innings over four starts at Triple-A.

Nationals' Tyler Stuart: Moves up to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Nationals promoted Stuart from Double-A Harrisburg to Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday.
Stuart will join the Triple-A rotation as a replacement for Brad Lord (hand), who was placed on the 7-day injured list in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old right-hander earned the bump to Rochester based on merit, as he had logged a 2.08 ERA and 1.08 WHIP across 21.2 innings over his four starts with Harrisburg since joining the Washington organization after being acquired from the Mets at the trade deadline.

Nationals' Tyler Stuart: Shipped to Washington
Rotowire
The Nationals acquired Stuart from the Mets on Sunday in exchange for outfielder Jesse Winker.
Stuart is in his first full season at the Double-A level and has a 3.96 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 90:20 K:BB across 84 innings. The 6-foot-9 righty could see Triple-A action by the end of the campaign and may not be far off from his MLB debut, and he should have a clearer path to pitching meaningful innings for Washington than he did with New York.
