Blue Jays’ manager comments on Trey Yesavage’s return timeline
This is big news for the Blue Jays.
The Toronto Blue Jays are making progress in bringing back pitcher Trey Yesavage, who sustained left knee meniscus surgery. Manager John Schneider has outlined a step-by-step recovery plan for the young right-hander, aiming to have him back before the end of the MLB regular season. Yesavage's recovery is progressing well, with recent developments including throwing off the mound and participating in bullpen sessions.
If all goes according to plan, the Blue Jays could utilize Yesavage in a "Super Bulk" role, providing valuable pitching without him needing to fully rebuild his workload. This could be crucial for the team's postseason hopes. Yesavage had a strong previous season, going 5-5 with a 3.65 ERA and 91 strikeouts in 93⅔ innings before his injury.
His return may not be as a traditional starter, but it represents a significant advancement in his comeback journey.
