Two more rehab starts coming
Bieber (elbow) will make another rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday, and Blue Jays manager John Schneider indicated that the right-hander will likely make one more start after that before being activated from the 60-day injured list, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Bieber threw 62 pitches this past Sunday for Buffalo in his first rehab outing for his new organization after being acquired from the Guardians at the trade deadline, and making two more rehab starts would allow him to get fully stretched out before taking a big-league mound for the first time since April 2024. That schedule would put Bieber in line to make his Jays debut on the road, either in Pittsburgh for a series that runs Aug. 18 through 20, or more likely, to begin a series in Miami on Aug. 22. It's not yet clear whether Toronto will consider using a six-man rotation at that point or bump someone like Eric Lauer to the bullpen, despite the southpaw's 2.83 ERA and 55:9 K:BB in 54 innings over his last 10 starts.

Works five frames in rehab start
Bieber (elbow) struck out six and allowed two earned runs on five hits and one walk over five innings in his rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Buffalo.
Analysis
Taking the hill for the first time as a member of the Blue Jays organization, Bieber spotted 47 of his 62 pitches for strikes. He sported a fastball that topped out at 94.4 mph and held steady throughout the afternoon at around 93 mph, about a tick above his average velocity from his two 2024 starts before he underwent Tommy John surgery last April. According to Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star, Bieber said after Sunday's outing that he was unsure whether he would be activated from the 60-day injured list to make his next start for the Blue Jays, who may prefer for the right-hander to get stretched out a little more before clearing him for his first MLB appearance in nearly 16 months.

Could make final rehab start Sunday
Bieber (elbow) is expected to throw 70-to-75 pitches in a rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
If everything goes well, Bieber could then return from the 60-day injured list to make his Blue Jays debut the following weekend in a road series against the Dodgers. Acquired from the Guardians at the trade deadline, the 30-year-old right-hander and 2020 American League Cy Young Award winner is in the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery he underwent in April 2024.

Heading to Toronto
The Blue Jays acquired Bieber (elbow) from the Guardians on Thursday in exchange for right-hander Khal Stephen (shoulder), Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
Analysis
Bieber has been on the injured list all season as he works his way back from April 2024 Tommy John surgery, but he looks nearly ready to make his 2025 MLB debut after striking out seven over four innings of one-run ball in his most recent rehab start with Double-A Akron on Tuesday. He built up to 58 pitches in that start -- the third of his rehab assignment -- so he may require just one or two more outings in the minors before the Blue Jays are ready to break him into the big-league rotation. The 2020 American League Cy Young Award winner holds a $16 million player option for 2026, which he will surely decline if he pitches well down the stretch for Toronto.
