Heads to IL The Blue Jays placed Burr on the 15-day injured list Thursday due to right shoulder inflammation, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Burr was unable to make any appearances in the Grapefruit League on account of the shoulder issue, so his move to the IL was fully expected. The right-hander will be eligible to come off the IL on April 8, but he'll likely need more time beyond that before the Blue Jays deem him ready to join the big-league bullpen.

Battling shoulder fatigue Burr has been dealing with right shoulder fatigue and is not expected to pitch in games soon, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Burr's shoulder has been giving him problems for most of spring training, as he dealt with a bout of tendinitis in February. Now battling fatigue, the right-hander has been limited to light throwing, and Toronto will likely be extra cautious building him back up to ensure his shoulder isn't an issue in the future. It's unclear if he'll be available for Opening Day.

Dealing with shoulder issue Burr has been managing shoulder tendinitis and "backed off" throwing for a few days, though he's playing catch Saturday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Burr may be able to build back up quickly and doesn't seem to be at risk of missing time to start the regular season. The veteran reliever is slated for a middle-relief role in Toronto's bullpen for the coming campaign after posting a 4.13 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 47:12 K:BB over 32.2 innings in 34 regular-season games during the 2024 season.

Slated to open Sunday's contest Burr will serve as the Blue Jays' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Rays, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact He'll draw his third opener assignment of the season and his second of September. In his previous two starts, Burr covered one and two innings, so expect him to fall somewhere in that range again Sunday before he turns the game over to the bullpen. Ryan Yarbrough is expected to work in bulk relief behind Burr.

Blue Jays put Alek Manoah on IL with elbow sprain, acquire Ryan Burr from Phillies

Dealt to Blue Jays Burr was traded from the Phillies to the Blue Jays on Thursday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Burr last pitched in the majors in 2022, though he had an impressive 2023 season in the Rays' organization. He's also maintained a 2.16 ERA and 1.17 WHIP with a 29:5 K:BB across 16.2 innings with Triple-A Lehigh Valley so far in the current campaign. Burr will likely report to Triple-A Buffalo initially, but he should have a chance to contribute to the big-league bullpen if he can maintain his current level of success.

MAY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes season debut Burr (shoulder) struck out two and worked around two hits to turn in a scoreless inning of relief Saturday in Triple-A Lehigh Valley's 5-4 win over Rochester.

Impact Burr was credited with a hold in his season debut for Lehigh Valley, where he was reassigned coming out of spring training when he failed to win a spot in the Phillies' Opening Day bullpen. The right-hander battled tightness in his right shoulder in March, but he made enough progress in his recovery to avoid a season-opening stint on Lehigh Valley's injured list.
