"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; It will be another missed season for Chad Billingsley. (Stephen Dunn/Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dodgers pitcher Chad Billingsley will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a torn flexor tendon in his right elbow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Billingsley elected for another surgery that will keep him from throwing for the next three months, reports J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News Group.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Billingsley, who missed the entire 2013 season, was working his way back from Tommy John surgery but was still hindered by lingering arm problems. A recent MRI revealed the pitcher had a torn flexor tendon and after discussing his options with his doctor, Billingsley made the decision to opt for surgery which wipes out any chance of him pitching in 2014.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Billingsley faces a six-month rehab process. He will be a free agent this winter after the Dodgers give him a $3 million buyout. The righty has made just two starts over the previous two seasons.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Billingsley (Elbow) to Undergo Surgery, out for Season (via http://t.co/06XiUcehgW) https://t.co/abDr9BWOAQ&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 Nick (@Nickdogg78) June 16, 2014&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Surgery will be next week to reattach flexor tendon. 3 months until he can throw.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2014 J.P.
