Shane Bieber Throws Bullpen on Wednesday, Looks "Sharp"
Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that starting pitcher Shane Bieber (elbow) threw a bullpen on Wednesday and "looked sharp," per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Bannon reports that Bieber is scheduled to throw another bullpen next week before progressing to work against live hitters. The veteran right-hander has yet to pitch in 2026 as he works his way back from elbow and forearm issues that landed him on the 60-day injured list before the start of the season. Bieber underwent Tommy John surgery in April 2024, which kept him out until August 2025. He was effective down the stretch for Toronto, recording a 4-2 record with a 3.57 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 37 strikeouts across 40 1/3 innings (seven starts). While Bieber is not eligible to return from the injured list until late May at the earliest, it appears that he's slowly making progress. Once healthy, he should be rostered in most fantasy formats.
