"Yesavage reported to camp with the injury and has been built up slowly as a result. He tossed 35 pitches in a minor league game this week and felt good, but he won't have enough time to finish ramping up before the season begins."
"The 22-year-old Yesavage was set to enter the 2026 as one of the favorites for American League Rookie of the Year honors after an eye-opening debut late last year. The former No. 20 overall pick made three regular-season starts and notched a 3.21 ERA in 14 innings before breaking out as a postseason hero."
"Yesavage pushed Toronto into a 3-2 World Series lead when he held the Dodgers' star-studded lineup to one run over seven frames while piling up a dozen strikeouts at Dodger Stadium. The Jays couldn't close things out in the final two games back home, but Yesavage's electric Game 5 performance emphatically thrust him into the national spotlight."
Trey Yesavage, a 22-year-old Blue Jays pitcher, will begin the 2026 season on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder impingement. He reported to camp with the injury and has been gradually built up, throwing 35 pitches in a minor league game this week. Though he felt good after that appearance, insufficient time remains before the season starts for complete recovery. Yesavage becomes the third Jays starter sidelined to begin the season, joining Shane Bieber and José Berríos. Despite the setback, Yesavage remains a Rookie of the Year candidate after an impressive debut and standout postseason performance, including a dominant World Series Game 5 against the Dodgers.
