Overview

  • Trey Yesavage was sent from Double-A New Hampshire to Triple-A Buffalo after a five-inning relief outing capped a four-level leap this season.
  • The 22-year-old right-hander has logged roughly 80 innings with a 3.01 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and a 42.3 percent strikeout rate.
  • GM Ross Atkins and manager John Schneider have signaled he could earn a major-league bullpen role during September rosters expansion.
  • Shane Bieber needs one more rehab start at Buffalo before rejoining Toronto’s rotation, a factor that will shape how Yesavage is deployed.
  • The Blue Jays held onto Yesavage at the trade deadline while adding veteran relievers, balancing short-term contention with future pitching depth.
