Overview

• The 22-year-old right-hander will make his MLB debut as Toronto’s starter Monday in Tampa, confirmed by Schneider on Sunday.
• Yesavage raced from Single-A to Triple-A in 2025, compiling a 3.12 ERA with 160 strikeouts over 98 innings across four levels.
• Schneider said the promotion is intentional to help now, noted there is no workload limit this year, and left his post-debut role to be determined.
• Toronto increased its AL East lead to 3.5 games after sweeping the Orioles, underscoring the late-season stakes of adding Yesavage.
• Scouting reports highlight a rare over-the-top release with a fastball, splitter and slider; Buffalo manager Casey Candaele reportedly offered a shutdown choice, which Yesavage declined to take the call-up.
