"Cody Ponce will undergo knee surgery and will likely miss the rest of the 2026 season. That is a tough blow for both Ponce and the Blue Jays as he was thought to be a key piece of their pitching staff in his return to MLB following his sensational 2025 campaign in the KBO."
"Shane Bieber, who had been out with forearm fatigue, has only been throwing bullpen sessions to date and will be doing more of that in the near future."
"José Berríos has already been throwing live sessions and had indicated that he felt good, giving the Jays some hope that he may be back sooner than expected."
"The closest of all Blue Jays pitchers in their potential return to the lineup is rookie Trey Yesavage as he has already been making rehab starts, currently working on building up his pitch count."
The Toronto Blue Jays are facing significant injury challenges, with nearly a third of their regular roster sidelined. This has contributed to a six-game losing streak following a promising start to the 2026 MLB season. Key players like Cody Ponce will miss the season due to knee surgery, while others like Shane Bieber and Yimi Garcia are in recovery but not yet ready to return. José Berríos shows potential for an earlier comeback, and rookie Trey Yesavage is making progress with rehab starts, aiming to increase his pitch count soon.
