Blue Jays’ Jameson Taillon leaves start against Royals with elbow discomfort
Taillon allowed one run on two hits before leaving, and manager John Schneider said the right-hander is likely headed back to the injured list.
- On Friday, the Toronto Blue Jays reinstated pitcher Jameson Taillon from the 15-day injured list to start against the Kansas City Royals, but Taillon departed after two innings with right elbow discomfort.
- Manager John Schneider noted this injury seems distinct from the right forearm tendinitis that sidelined Taillon on August 10, and the 34-year-old will undergo an MRI to assess the setback.
- Despite Taillon's exit, Toronto defeated the Royals 9-2 on Friday; Mitch Bannon of The Athletic noted the situation is "certainly not great" as the Blue Jays scramble for starting pitching depth.
- Progressing in his rehab, rookie pitcher Trey Yesavage threw a 23-pitch side session on Friday and reached 92 mph, with a 30-pitch session planned for Thursday.
- Toronto entered the weekend with a 70-71 record, remaining a half-game out of the American League's final Wild Card spot, and may rely on Yesavage to bolster the rotation for a postseason run.
