"Tiedemann was once considered the Blue Jays' top prospect, but has been injured for much of 2023 (bicep), 2024, and 2025 (Tommy John surgery). When healthy, he has great stuff and a fastball that can reach in the upper 90s."
"Bloss, acquired by the Blue Jays in the Yusei Kikuchi trade with the Houston Astros in 2024, made just six starts with the Bisons last season before also being shut down due to Tommy John surgery. He hasn't had a great go of things since joining the organization, posting a 6.91 ERA and 5.87 FIP in 27.1 innings after the trade."
"Drafted in the 12th round of the 2023 draft, Yeager posted a 2.75 ERA and 3.45 FIP in 55.2 innings pitched between High-A and Double-A last season, with a 29.1 K% and 9.1 BB%. The 23-year-old righty is one of the Blue Jays' better relief prospects."
The Blue Jays made several roster moves after winning shutout games on Sunday, optioning Jake Bloss and Ricky Tiedemann to the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons and reassigning Tanner Andrews, Nate Garkow, and Chay Yeager to minor league camp. Tiedemann, once the organization's top prospect, has struggled with injuries including bicep issues and Tommy John surgery across multiple seasons. Bloss, acquired in the Yusei Kikuchi trade from Houston, has posted poor statistics since joining the organization with a 6.91 ERA in 27.1 innings. Multiple Blue Jays pitching prospects have undergone Tommy John surgery recently, including Yeager and Garkow. Despite setbacks, both Bloss and Yeager represent potential depth for the organization's pitching needs.
