New York Yankees' starting pitcher Ryan Weathers left Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with left forearm discomfort, potentially impacting the team's rotation. The 26-year-old, acquired in an offseason trade from the Miami Marlins, was set to undergo imaging on Saturday. Weathers' discomfort emerged after he threw a sweeper to Blue Jays outfielder Myles Straw with one out in the fourth inning, marking his 72nd pitch of the day.

Following a trainer visit, Weathers did not attempt any warm-up pitches before departing the field. This is Weathers' second setback this season, following left-hander Max Fried's recent addition to the injured list with a left elbow bone bruise. Weathers has been impressive this season, posting a 3.60 ERA in 25 starts, and has thrown more than 137 1/3 innings, nearly tripling his total from the previous year.
