Trey Yesavage Will Open 2026 on the Injured List Due to Shoulder Impingement
Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Trey Yesavage (shoulder) will open the season on the Injured List due to a right shoulder impingement, per Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. Toronto had been slow-playing Yesavage in Spring Training in an effort to manage his innings workload, but it appears as though the young right-hander will now require an injury-related shutdown. The 22-year-old made his MLB debut in 2025 and was a key contributor in the Blue Jays' run to the World Series, pitching to a 3.58 ERA and 1.05 WHIP with 39 strikeouts across 27 2/3 postseason innings. It's not yet clear how much time Yesavage should be expected to miss, but losing him for any stretch is a blow to Toronto's rotation. From a fantasy perspective, Yesavage's workload uncertainty makes him difficult for managers to rely on. Veteran left-hander Eric Lauer could be called upon to fill Yesavage's spot in the Blue Jays rotation to open 2026.
