Trey Yesavage

The Blue Jays have been cautious with his workload this spring after a deep playoff run last year. Yesavage threw 35 pitches in his last outing, so the Blue Jays will want him to bump up from that so that he could potentially be up to 60 pitches by the end of spring training. He still has not appeared in an MLB spring training game, so it remains to be seen what the Blue Jays' plan for him is at the start of the season, especially now with Jose Berrios potentially beginning the season on the IL.

That's not typically a good sign. The Blue Jays had previously said they were not concerned about a major injury for Berrios, but it's hard to be as confident in that now. He likely wasn't on fantasy radars anyway so this shouldn't change that, but it may change value in the rest of the Blue Jays rotation. The team had wanted to be cautious with Trey Yesavage's innings, but they may not have that luxury anymore. Of course, they could just move Eric Lauer into the rotation or piggyback Lauer and Yesavage. This also means Cody Ponce's spot in this rotation is very secure, and he should be going higher in drafts.

Yesavage has not yet pitched in an MLB game this spring, and there is no guarantee he will. The Blue Jays want him to make two more "starts" after this Wednesday outing, but they will not commit to them in an MLB spring training game. After the Blue Jays signed Dylan Cease, Cody Ponce, and Max Scherzer, there aren't enough rotation spots for Yesavage. The organization has also made it clear that they will be cautious with the 22-year-old's innings this season, coming off a World Series run last year. That likely means Yesavage will not be a regular starter for Toronto early in the season, which makes it really hard to draft him where he is currently going in redraft leagues.
