Back in the rotation and back on track.

After two straight outings in the bullpen, Trey Yesavage got the start for the triple-A Buffalo Bisons on Wednesday and didn’t allow a single baserunner.

Yesavage ended his appearance after three perfect innings against the Rochester Red Wings, tossing 34 pitches — 28 strikes — and striking out four.

The 22-year-old overwhelmed the Rochester lineup with a heavy dose of fastballs, averaging 94.3 m.p.h. with his heater, while mixing in a splitter and slider. With his three-pitch mix, Yesavage generated nine swings and misses on the night.

Yesavage struggled in his last relief appearance on Sunday, recording just one out while walking two and allowing one hit before being lifted from the game.

He immediately flipped the script on Wednesday, needing just 13 pitches to strike out the side in order in the bottom of the first. The six-foot-four righty continued to handle a Red Wings lineup that featured several players with MLB experience, cruising through the next two frames, as just one ball put in play came off a bat at over 90 m.p.h.

Paxton Schultz entered for the Bisons in the fourth inning and surrendered a leadoff single.

The Toronto Blue Jays‘ first-round pick in 2024, Yesavage has shot through the organization’s affiliates in 2025, pitching at all four full-season levels and landing on the doorstep of the major leagues. He entered Wednesday’s outing with 156 strikeouts and a 3.22 ERA over 95 innings on the year.

Yesavage was ranked as the Blue Jays’ top prospect and the 26th-overall prospect in all of baseball in a mid-season update by MLB Pipeline.

Upon Yesavage’s initial move to the bullpen last week, Sportsnet’s Ben Nicholson-Smith reported that the East Carolina University product remains on the Blue Jays’ radar for this season, but added that the focus remains on his development at triple-A.

While Yesavage wasn’t added to Toronto’s 40-man roster ahead of roster expansion on Sept. 1, he could still be post-season eligible via a Commissioner’s exemption to replace an injured player — a hurdle that has commonly been cleared for top prospects in recent years.
