Alejandro Kirk to Undergo Thumb Surgery on Tuesday
Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk (thumb) will have left-thumb surgery on Tuesday, according to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. Kirk is having surgery on his thumb after fracturing it and being placed on the 10-day injured list. It's unclear exactly how long the Blue Jays' starting catcher will be sidelined, but he will most likely miss at least the rest of April. Check back for more details on his surgery and a potential timetable for a return in 2026. The 27-year-old Mexican backstop only played in five games for Toronto before suffering the injury, going 3-for-20 (.150) with a homer and two RBI. With Kirk sidelined, the Jays will continue to move forward with Tyler Heineman splitting playing time behind the dish with Brandon Valenzuela. Kirk is only rostered in 39% of current Yahoo leagues after his early-season injury.
