Los Angeles Dodgers closer Edwin Diaz will undergo surgery Wednesday to remove loose bodies from his right elbow, the club announced Monday.

Díaz is expected to return after the All-Star break, which ends July 14.

The Dodgers placed the three-time All-Star on the 15-day injured list after his fastball velocity dipped into the low-90s during Sunday's loss to the Colorado Rockies. He failed to record an out in his first appearance in nine days.
