Trey Yesavage has resumed throwing just one week after undergoing meniscus surgery on his left knee. The Toronto Blue Jays hope this recovery will allow him to contribute before the end of the 2026 MLB season. Yesavage played a significant role in the Blue Jays' 2025 postseason run, posting a 3.65 ERA and 91 strikeouts over 93.2 innings. With the team fighting for a playoff spot, his potential return could positively impact Toronto's chances. However, his progress will depend on how his knee reacts as he increases his workload.
