Yesavage could pitch for Blue Jays on Sunday or Monday; Bieber pushed back
TORONTO - Blue Jays manager John Schneider has some mixed news regarding their postseason push. The manager shared both good news and bad news in one announcement.
On the positive side, Trey Yesavage has been performing well in conditioning starts with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons. With this progress, Yesavage could potentially take the mound for the Blue Jays as early as Sunday against the Texas Rangers.
However, there is also some disappointing news. Former Cy Young Award winner Shane Bieber has encountered an issue and will need to postpone his return to action. Bieber's recovery timeline is becoming increasingly limited, with only ten games remaining in the regular season. Toronto currently leads the Cleveland Guardians by two games for the third and final wild-card spot in the American League.
