Opening Saturday's game
Fluharty will start Saturday's game against the White Sox, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Analyse
The Blue Jays will go with a bullpen game in the absence of Cody Ponce (knee), who went down with a sprained right ACL in his team debut Monday. Fluharty hasn't recorded more than two outs in any of his four appearances so far this season. Lazaro Estrada seems the most likely candidate to handle the bulk of the innings for Toronto.

Moves past knee issue
Fluharty (knee) made relief appearances in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Athletics and Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Rockies, recording three outs and allowing no runs on one hit between the two outings.
Analyse
Fluharty made his season debut out of the bullpen in Saturday's 11-inning win over the Athletics but was lifted early after taking a comebacker on the inside of his right knee. Fortunately for Fluharty, X-rays on the knee returned negative, and he was made available in relief one day later.

X-rays negative on right knee
Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters that Fluharty suffered a right knee contusion during Saturday's 8-7 extra-innings win over the Athletics, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analyse
Fluharty was struck by two comebackers during the seventh inning of Saturday's game, with the second one catching him on the inside of his knee. The good news is that X-rays came back negative, and the injury may not require a trip to the IL. Fluharty will be a key piece in the Blue Jays' bullpen as the team looks to get back to the World Series. Over his last 18 outings of the 2025 regular season, Fluharty posted a 2.41 ERA and 0.86 WHIP across 18.2 innings.
