Toronto optioned pitchers Jake Bloss and Ricky Tiedemann to triple-A and re-assigned right-handers Tanner Andrews, Nate Garkow, and Chay Yeager to minor-league camp.<\/p>\n
Tiedemann and Bloss had yet to pitch for the Blue Jays this spring, as both work back from injury.<\/p>\n
Tiedmann felt left elbow soreness during a side session earlier in camp and was backed off from throwing by the team.<\/p>\n
Formerly the club’s top prospect, Tiedemann missed all of 2025 after undergoing Tommy John surgery the previous summer.<\/p>\n
Bloss, meanwhile, underwent UCL reconstruction surgery early last season. He was acquired by Toronto from the Houston Astros at the 2024 trade deadline as part of the return for Yusei Kikuchi.<\/p>\n
Andrews, 30, signed a minor-league deal with the Blue Jays this off-season that came with an invite to spring training.<\/p>\n
He pitched in three games for Toronto and didn’t allow a run.<\/p>\n
Yeager and Garkow were both internal non-roster invites by the Blue Jays this spring.<\/p>\n
Yeager didn’t pitch in a game and underwent UCL reconstruction surgery of his own on Feb. 25, ending his season.<\/p>\n
Garkow, 28, posted a 13.50 ERA over three spring appearances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Toronto optioned pitchers Jake Bloss and Ricky Tiedemann to triple-A and re-assigned right-handers Tanner Andrews, Nate Garkow, and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":523570,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,462,82],"class_list":["post-523569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/523569","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=523569"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/523569\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/523570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=523569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=523569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=523569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
