Trey Yesavage impresses against Nats

Toronto Blue Jays photo day

Trey Yesavage

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Player Stats

Trey Yesavage earned the win on Wednesday in Washington, tossing 6 2/3 innings while allowing one earned run.

Yesavage struck out four, walked three, and allowed three hits. He lowered his ERA to 3.73 with a strong outing against the highest-scoring lineup in MLB. The 23-year-old set an impossibly high bar with his October performance a season ago, but he’s held his own despite a limited minor-league track record. One concern is that he has four starts with five or more walks this season. Cutting those down is the key to a breakout over the final two months or in 2027. He’ll draw the Astros in Houston next time out.

Trey Yesavage

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Trey Yesavage (knee) is scheduled to face hitters in a simulated game on Thursday.

Yesavage, who threw a 34-pitch bullpen session in Florida on Monday, figures to make it back to Toronto’s pitching equation before the regular season concludes, but he’s at least a few steps away based on his throwing progression. The 23-year-old starter underwent left knee meniscus surgery back in early August. It sounds like he’s going to need at least one minor league rehab start next week before he’s an option for the Blue Jays again.

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Trey Yesavage got up to 92 mph while throwing a 23-pitch side session Friday.

Yesavage, returning from knee surgery, will throw again Monday and then likely face hitters next Thursday. If the Jays remain in contention, he’ll probably get a chance to come off the IL for the final week of the season.

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Trey Yesavage (knee) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Friday.

Yesavage is making lightning-quick progress after undergoing left knee meniscus surgery roughly three weeks ago. The 23-year-old is going to need at least a few more weeks to ramp up his throwing progression, but he figures to make it back to contribute in some capacity for the Blue Jays before the end of September.

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Trey Yesavage (knee) has started a throwing progression.

Yesavage is roughly one week removed from undergoing left knee meniscus surgery and is aiming to return before the end of the regular season. The 23-year-old starter will need several weeks to build up his arm strength and pitch count and arm strength before he’s ready to jump back into Toronto’s rotation. He’s worth stashing in deeper mixed leagues, but fantasy managers in shallow formats are probably safe to cut bait.
Trey Yesavage

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Trey Yesavage is week-to-week after undergoing left knee meniscus surgery.

Yesavage underwent a procedure to address a meniscus injury in his left knee and it sounds like the Blue Jays haven’t officially ruled him out for the remainder of the season, based on comments by manager John Schneider. The dynamic 23-year-old’s potential return in the closing moments of the year probably depends on whether Toronto has any chance at a playoff spot. It seems highly unlikely he’ll offer enough volume to make a significant fantasy impact down the home stretch, which means managers in shallow mixed leagues are safe to move on completely.

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Trey Yesavage (knee) is dealing with a meniscus injury and will visit a specialist.

Surgery “is always a possibility,” when a player sees a specialist, said Schneider per Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi. This is not a promising update for Yesavage’s chances of returning to the rotation any time soon. Given Toronto’s position in the standings, it would be surprising if they tried to push him to fight through this towards the end of the season if they had any doubt about it.
Trey Yesavage

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Blue Jays placed RHP Trey Yesavage on the 15-day injured list with left knee inflammation.

The latest report was that the Blue Jays were still waiting on MRI results, but it’s clear that they felt Yesavage would not be a good bet to make his next start or the one after. The Blue Jays didn’t fully sell at the deadline, but their playoff hopes remain slim, so they may not be inclined to rush Yesavage and have him pitch at less than 100 percent. We’ll wait for the MRI results before we know more about how long he will be sidelined.

Trey Yesavage was removed from Tuesday’s start against the Astros with left knee discomfort.

Not great. Yesavage appeared to injure his left knee while landing on a warmup pitch prior to the third inning and made an immediate exit from the contest with a trainer. He departed after firing a pair of scoreless innings. The 23-year-old’s absence would be a crushing blow in the middle of an already dismal season for the Blue Jays. He’ll undergo further evaluation and imaging to determine the severity of the issue. It certainly seems like a potential injured list situation. There should be additional clarity on his status later this week.

Trey Yesavage left Tuesday’s start against the Astros with a trainer.

Yesavage appeared to injure his left knee on a warmup pitch prior to the third inning and was immediately lifted from the contest. The 23-year-old departed after firing a pair of scoreless frames. It would be a colossal loss for the Blue Jays, and fantasy managers as well, if he were to miss any time over the final two months. There should be an update on his status shortly.

TOR Starting Pitcher #39

Trey Yesavage fanned nine but was lifted after allowing three runs in four innings Friday against the Red Sox.

The runs came on a homer in the first and a single and a homer in the third. Yesavage allowed just two other hits and walked one, but he needed 93 pitches to get his 12 outs, resulting in the early exit. It’s the second straight start in which Yesavage has struck out nine. He hasn’t won any of his four starts this month, but he doesn’t seem far off. He’ll face the Nationals next.

Orlando Ribalta (forearm) underwent an MRI that didn’t reveal any structural damage.

Ribalta could potentially make it back to Washington’s bullpen before the conclusion of the regular season, but there is zero reason for them to rush him back. The 28-year-old hit the injured list unexpectedly after experiencing forearm inflammation over the weekend. The positive news is that he’s not facing a lengthy absence.

Díaz is slated to make back-to-back appearances for Triple-A Oklahoma City this week before he’s potentially activated from the injured list. The 32-year-old former elite closer has been on the shelf with neck inflammation since late August. It feels highly unlikely that he’ll be thrust into high-leverage spots for the Dodgers right away.

Shea Langeliers (knee) will begin a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday.

Langeliers is on track to return at some point next week and will be limited to DH exclusively after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee back in July. It was believed to be a season-ending procedure at the time, but Langeliers has made a rapid recovery. He’s obviously worth picking up in any fantasy leagues where he’s available as a decent catching option for the final week-plus of the season.
