Trey Yesavage still in limbo
It is unclear when he will make his first preseason start.
Trey Yesavage is throwing today back in #BlueJays camp, then they'll decide on next steps from there as they try to manage his workload early on.
Could be a live BP, could be a Minor League game, could be a big-league game.

Mike Trout regains his speed
Great news.
Mike Trout said earlier this spring that he wanted to reach the 30 feet per second threshold that is considered elite for Sprint Speed and he reached it in the first inning today on his grounder to short. It's a good sign he's running faster than last yearhttps://t.co/li5ZJPERDF

World Baseball Classic: Japan wins its group
No surprise here.

Andres Gimenez is okay
He got hurt in the World Baseball Classic on Friday.
Andres Gimenez is OK after he was hit by a pitch in Venezuela's WBC game vs Netherlands on Friday
Blue Jays were encouraged with how Yariel Rodriguez pitched for Cuba — fastball sat 94, up to 97. He'd been working on some delivery adjustments prior to leaving for the tournament
