Ricky Tiedemann Sidelined by Elbow Soreness During Spring Training

Blue Jays prospect Ricky Tiedemann has been sidelined since February 24 due to elbow soreness. While an MRI came back clean, the team is taking a cautious approach with the 23-year-old left-hander, who is returning from August 2024 Tommy John surgery. Tiedemann, a former top prospect, is expected to build up in a bulk role this season once healthy. He remains a high-upside arm for Toronto despite his ongoing injury history.
