Blue Jays' signing of former Guardians prospect reinforces Cleveland's trade deadline win The Blue Jays' decision to claim Matt Waldron off waivers makes the Guardians' strong trade deadline look even better.
AUGUST 7 • AWAYBACKGONE.COM
Waiver pickup for Jays The Blue Jays claimed Waldron off waivers from the Padres on Wednesday.
Impact Waldron will presumably slot into the bullpen in Toronto, where he'll provide the team with a right-handed arm capable of covering multiple innings. Toronto transferred lefty Patrick Corbin (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL in order to clear room on the 40-man roster for Waldron, who recorded a 7.16 ERA and 1.56 WHIP in 32.2 innings with San Diego this season.
AUGUST 5 • ROTOWIRE
Dropped from 40-man roster The Padres designated Waldron for assignment Wednesday.
Impact The Padres needed to clear room for Jeremiah Estrada's (knee) return from the injured list, and because he doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, Waldron was dropped from the 40-man roster to facilitate the transaction. Waldron was a serviceable back-end starter for the Padres in 2024 but has seen his effectiveness wane in the two seasons since while also missing considerable time due to injuries. In 10 appearances (three starts) for San Diego this season, Waldron turned in a 7.16 ERA and 1.56 WHIP across 32.2 innings.

Padres Demote Pitcher, Reinstate Matt Waldron Off Injured List The San Diego Padres have reinstated Matt Waldron while demoting a veteran pitcher in a corresponding move.
JULY 11 • SI.COM
Activated from IL The Padres reinstated Waldron (forearm) from the injured list Saturday.
Impact A forearm strain has kept Waldron on the injured list since mid-May, but he has been playing in rehab games at Triple-A El Paso since June 14. The 29-year-old gave up four earned runs while striking out 10 batters in 15 innings across five appearances during his time in the minors. The Padres don't currently have a spot open for him in the rotation, so he figures to work out of the bullpen as a long reliever for the time being.

Covers four innings in rehab start Waldron (forearm) struck out one batter while allowing one run on eight hits and no walks over four innings in a rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A El Paso.
Impact Making the fourth start of his rehab assignment as he works his way back from a right brachialis strain, Waldron got stretched out to 60 pitches and threw 42 strikes. Waldron is slated to make another start for El Paso on Tuesday, which could set the stage for him to return from the 15-day injured list later this weekend or immediately following the All-Star break. San Diego may not have a spot available in its rotation for Waldron, so he could serve as a long reliever once he's activated.

Makes third rehab appearance Waldron (forearm) struck out four and allowed two earned runs on two hits and four walks across 2.2 innings Thursday in a rehab start with Triple-A El Paso.
Impact Waldron has now made three rehab starts with El Paso and built up to 59 pitches during Thursday's outing. Though the Padres are seemingly letting Waldron get stretched back out as a starter, he may need to show improved results on the farm in order to get a look in the big-league rotation.
