The Toronto Blue Jays have continued to monitor the health of several pitchers as Spring Training continues, including some of the better arms on the staff. With the long season approaching, the organization is focused on keeping guys healthy.
According to Arden Zwelling, multiple Toronto pitchers are currently moving through different stages of their recovery and preparation.
“Blue Jays pitching updates Ricky Tiedemann (elbow) resumed throwing on Tuesday Trey Yesavage is scheduled to throw a two-inning simulated game vs minor-leaguers on Wednesday Shane Bieber (forearm) and Yimi Garcia (elbow) continuing throwing on flat ground,” he wrote.
Ricky Tiedemann, who resumed throwing on Tuesday as he continues working his way back from an elbow issue, is expected to be an elite arm one day.
Another young pitcher, Trey Yesavage, is also progressing in camp. Yesavage ended up throwing on Wednesday and as long as everything goes well, there doesn’t seem to be too much of a worry about how he’ll look.
Shane Bieber has been injured for a lot of his career, so he’s a bit more questionable in the long and short-term than most of these other guys. Bieber, when healthy, has shown that he’s as good as it gets.
