Bluebirds Note: Garcia, Swanson, Burr, Sandlin, Gimenes, Manoa

Yimi Garcia It was placed on the Blue Jays’ 15-day injury list due to a right shoulder impact. Manager John Schneider today provided some latest news to journalists, including Sportsnet’s Arden Zwelling, which included Garcia’s access to cocoa on her under-sick shoulders, so it will be shut down for several days while the shot takes effect. Schneider said a more accurate recovery schedule would not be in place until Garcia started throwing.

Garcia did not allow a prize in his 21 appearances in 2025, as all his injuries (7 euros) were opposed to the Guardians and Angels on May 3 and 6, respectively. He has 3.15 ERA and a great strikeout rate of 28.9% innings this season, but his 12% walk rate is well beyond his career norm and his 23.8% chase rate is well below the league average.

Even with those slight red flags, Garcia is the best setting option for Toronto Jeff HoffmanSo, losing Garcia for at least 15 days is another tough break for Bluebird Bullpen, which missed some key arms in all or most of the 2025 campaign. Erik Swanson His minor league recovery mission was interrupted by the median nerve entrainment of his right arm surfaced during spring training, and some forearm soreness broke the beginning of his minor league recovery mission.

Fortunately, Swanson looks ready now, as Schneider said, relief workers will be on a rehabilitation outing with Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday. Swanson is another pitcher this season, and he performed well in the second half of the 2023 and 2024 seasons, although only after being injured in the first half.

This news is not that good for right-handed Ryan Burrhe checked with the team doctor after his rehabilitation on Sunday. Burr is another pitcher as he is still waiting for his 2025 debut since he dealt with shoulder inflammation in the spring, and Burr’s shoulders are still feeling uncomfortable after Sunday’s outing. If Burr’s soreness is severe, or his recovery may be put on hold, you’ll know more soon.

Nick Sandlin His Blue Jays tenure had a pleasant start when he released a 2.25 ERA in the first eight innings against the team, before bringing him to the 15-day IL on April 20. Now, as Sandlin spent a month on the camp, he held a bullfight today at the Jays Training Building in Florida.

Turning position player, Andres Gimenez Florida is also frustrated, Schneider said Gimenes aims to play Wednesday’s rehabilitation competition. Gimenez, along with Sandlin, cooled down sharply after the hot start in a massive offseason deal with the Guardians, hitting only .195/.273/.305 in 143 sets before sending him to 10-day IL earlier this month, hitting .195/.273/.305 in 143 sets. Gimenez is Jays’ starting second baseman, Ernie Clement After that, Gimenes moved to Keestone in absent Addison Barger Enter the picture as a regular third baseman.

Alek Manoah Amid the Blue Jays’ recent visit to Tampa to play Rays, reporters also provided the latest news about his identity as Manoah has been recovering from his Tommy John surgery on Jays’ Dunedin Complex. Manoah spoke with Keegan Matheson of MLB.com and other media outlets, and his goal is to return with Jays in August, which will be his absence for about 14 months since he accepted the TJ program in June 2024.

Of course, like any recovery in UCL surgery, this schedule is still very smooth. Manoah is still in the bullpen meeting stage of throwing progress (twice a week, with bullpens having over 40 courts), so he still has a way to go before he can turn to his minor league rehabilitation and work hard for the start-up workload.

Once Toronto’s rapidly growing ace, Manoah’s career deviated for most of three years. Manoah followed up his excellent 2022 season in the 2023 campaign, which left him completely losing command of the strike zone and completely in Jays’ major league roster. When he released a 3.70 ERA in five games, he seemed to be back on a certain path ahead of 24 1/3 innings in 2024, then Tommy John’s program put Manoah before Illinois State.

His appearance is anyone’s guess after Manoah returns to the active roster, but even the 2024 version will be welcomed by the Jays team that needs rotation depth. Kevin Gausman,,,,, Jose Berriosand Chris Bassitt Still the top three pitchers, but Bowden Francis Struggle Max ShezerThe damage problem of its own leads to the revolving doors that are mostly invalid in the fifth starter role.
