Blue Jays pitcher Trey Yesavage lasted only two innings Tuesday night before leaving his start against the Houston Astros due to left knee discomfort. According to MLB.com, Yesavage will undergo an MRI on Wednesday to assess the injury.
The early exit came during a Blue Jays loss to Houston. Manager John Schneider addressed the media after the game regarding Yesavage's status, though the specific details of his comments were not available. One source described the injury as undisclosed rather than specifying left knee discomfort, but most reporting identified the left knee as the problem area.
Yesavage's departure forced the Blue Jays to turn to other pitching options, with Chad Dallas taking over the start and struggling in his outing. The loss also saw Vladimir Guerrero Jr. sustain an injury during the game, adding to Toronto's injury concerns.
