Slated for surgery Fairbanks will undergo surgery to treat thoracic outlet syndrome, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Fairbanks was ruled out for the season upon landing on the injured list Tuesday with nerve irritation in his right hand, and now that he's confirmed to be dealing with thoracic outlet syndrome, he'll go under the knife to treat the issue. A timeline for his return should emerge after his procedure, though he'll likely have to sit out the first portion of the 2027 campaign.

Placed on injured list The Marlins placed Fairbanks on the 15-day injured list with right median nerve irritation.

Impact Fairbanks has already landed on the injured list twice this season due to nerve issues in his right hand, and his third will cause his season to come to an early end. The 32-year-old picked up 19 saves while struggling to a 6.31 ERA and 1.35 WHIP over 41.1 innings during his first year with the Marlins. Calvin Faucher and Michael Petersen will both be candidates to work as Miami's closer during the season's final weeks.

Nerve issues resurface Fairbanks' removal from Monday's appearance in Arizona was due to a recurrence of medial nerve irritation in his pitching hand, Jesse Borek of MLB.com reports.

Impact Making his second appearance since coming off the injured list, Fairbanks threw only six pitches Monday before exiting. Fairbanks has required two different trips to the 15-day injured list this season with his nerve problem, and if he needs a third it would end his season. More should be known about Fairbanks' condition prior to Tuesday's contest against the Diamondbacks. If Fairbanks is shelved, Calvin Faucher and Michael Petersen are among the candidates to fill the Marlins' closer role.

Corbin Carroll hits game-winning, 2-run homer in the 9th to lift D-backs over the Marlins 8-7

Exits early Monday Fairbanks was removed from Monday's game against the Diamondbacks due to an apparent arm injury, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Impact Fairbanks was unable to record an out in the bottom of the ninth inning and left the game with the trainer after throwing only six pitches. Monday marked his second appearance since returning from the IL due to medial nerve irritation in his pitching hand, an issue that has forced him to the shelf on two separate occasions this year. It's unclear at this time whether the same issue cropped up again for Fairbanks during Monday's save opportunity.

Earns 19th save Fairbanks earned the save in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers, allowing one run on one hit and one walk without recording a strikeout in the ninth inning.

Impact Fairbanks was called on for his first save opportunity since returning from the injured list Wednesday and closed the door despite allowing a run. The 32-year-old's fastball velocity was down nearly three mph from his season average, so he is possibly still experiencing some rust from his hand injury. He's now 19-for-23 in save chances this year but owns an ugly 6.10 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 57:20 K:BB across 41.1 innings this season.

Reinstated from injured list The Marlins activated Fairbanks (hand) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Impact As expected, Fairbanks required only a minimum 15-day absence while recovering from right medial nerve irritation in his pitching hand. Fairbanks did not make any rehab appearances, but he will likely be immediately thrown back into the closer role after a relatively brief absence.

Expected back Wednesday Fairbanks (hand) will throw another bullpen session Monday and is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Impact Fairbanks has been shelved for nearly two weeks of action with medial nerve irritation in his right hand. He was administered multiple injections to combat the issue, and the shots appear to have achieved the desired goal. Fairbanks should be thrown right back into the Marlins' closer role upon activation.
