Zambrano was injured May 6 against Atlanta at Shea Stadium and will be lost for the season.
Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek removed bone spurs from the elbow, repaired a torn tendon and performed "Tommy John" surgery to repair a torn ligament.
Originally, the team expected him to be ready for spring training, but that could be modified because of the additional surgery.
NOTES, QUOTES
LF Cliff Floyd, who didn't start the last two games of the Milwaukee series over the weekend, is expected to return to left field and the sixth spot in the batting order Tuesday at St. Louis against RHP Jeff Suppan, against whom he is batting .111 (2-for-18) lifetime.
LHP Tom Glavine (5-2, 2.19) will make his ninth start of the season Tuesday against St. Louis. He is 17-6 with a 3.58 lifetime ERA in 34 career games against the Cardinals.
The Mets have won 11 games by one run and six in their final at-bat.
The Mets remain undecided as to Thursday's starter at St. Louis. The choices are activating RHP Brian Bannister from the disabled list (strained right hamstring) or choosing between RHPs Jeremi Gonzalez and Jose Lima.
RHP Victor Zambrano underwent successful elbow surgery Monday and will be lost for the season.
BY THE NUMBERS: 2.37 -- Jose Lima's career ERA against the Brewers.
QUOTE TO NOTE: "I remember when he was a little baby and now he's coming back to haunt me. I was always nice to him, you know. I gave him candy." -- Mets manager Willie Randolph on Milwaukee's Prince Fielder.
ROSTER REPORT
MEDICAL WATCH:
RHP Juan Padilla is lost for the year following elbow surgery.
RHP Victor Zambrano went on the 60-day disabled list May 7 with a torn flexor tendon in his right elbow. Surgery was performed May 15, but was much more extensive then expected, as Mets medical director Dr. David Altchek removed bone spurs from the elbow, repaired a torn tendon and performed "Tommy John" surgery to repair a torn ligament. The surgery was successful, and Zambrano is out for the season. He might not be ready in time for spring training.
2B Anderson Hernandez went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to April 18 because of a bulging disk in his back.
RHP Brian Bannister went on the 15-day disabled list April 27 with a strained right hamstring. He might be activated to start May 18.
RHP John Maine went on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 3 with inflammation in his right middle finger.
