Fantasy Impact

It is a tough blow for Bloss who will likely miss the rest of this season. He does not have a clear timetable to return as of now.

Blue Jays pitching prospect Jake Bloss is dealing with a right elbow issue.

Fantasy Impact

Bloss is set to be re-evaluated by doctors. The Blue Jays will have an update on his status when available.

The Blue Jays sent Jake Bloss to Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday, per team updates, after a mixed spring showing across four appearances this camp.

Fantasy Impact

Bloss’s 8 earned runs in 8.0 spring innings, with a 3-scoreless-inning peak on March 10, couldn’t secure a Blue Jays rotation spot, landing him in Buffalo Thursday. The 23-year-old’s MLB debut delays. Fantasy managers in deep dynasty leagues should stash him, expecting his young arm to vie for a midseason call-up if he refines his game with Toronto’s Triple-A squad in 2025.

Jake Bloss could step in as the Blue Jays’ No. 5 starter if Max Scherzer (thumb) isn’t ready by March 31, per team updates, alongside Yariel Rodríguez and Eric Lauer.

Fantasy Impact

Bloss’s 6:6 K:BB and 3 homers over 8 spring innings trail Rodríguez’s struggles, but his recent sharpness keeps him in contention for Toronto’s fifth starter role by March 31 if Scherzer’s delayed. Lauer’s also an option. Fantasy managers in deep leagues might stash Bloss, hoping his late spring form earns an early rotation shot with the Jays.

Jake Bloss will start the Blue Jays split squad game on the road on Friday against the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

Chris Bassitt is slated to start the split squad game at home on Friday. Bloss was traded to Toronto last season in the move that sent Yusei Kikuchi to the Astros.
