Still not doing baseball activities Barger (back/elbow) remains shut down from baseball activities, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact While Barger hopes to play again this season, an August return would be a best-case scenario, according to manager John Schneider. Barger hasn't played since May 9 due to right elbow inflammation and a stress reaction in his back. It's been a lost season for the 26-year-old, as he's managed to appear in just nine games to this point in 2026.

Shut down due to stress reaction Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Monday that Barger (elbow) will be shut down for a couple of weeks after recently sustaining a stress reaction in his back, Keegan Matheson of...

Impact Per Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca, Schneider noted that Barger made been progressing well in his recovery from right elbow inflammation while ramping up his hitting over the past few weeks, but the back issue will most likely delay the 26-year-old's return from the injured list until after the All-Star break. After a strong finish to the 2025 regular season and a star turn in the Blue Jays' run to the World Series, Barger has been unable to build on that breakout performance, largely due to injury. He's been limited to just nine games with the big club so far in 2026 while missing time due to left and right ankle sprains in addition to the elbow and back problems.

Impact The Blue Jays initially hoped Barger would be ready for a rehab assignment last week, but he's still feeling a bit of soreness in his right elbow at times when he's hitting. A revised timeline pointed toward Barger kicking off his rehab assignment Thursday, but it's unclear whether that could still happen. Barger has been sidelined since mid-May with right elbow inflammation.

Aiming to start rehab Thursday Barger (elbow) is targeting Thursday for the beginning of his rehab assignment, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Barger is expected to require about a week's worth of rehab games before being reinstated to the Blue Jays' active roster, setting him up to return in early July if all goes well. The 26-year-old has been shelved since mid-May with right elbow inflammation, and he's played only nine games for Toronto this season because of injuries.
