Impact Bieber is scheduled to throw a side session Saturday, and the Blue Jays are hoping that the veteran right-hander can return if the team qualifies for the playoffs. Bieber continues to recover from right teres major inflammation that landed him on the 15-day injured list in late August.

Bullpen session pushed back Bieber's (shoulder) bullpen session has been pushed back again to either Friday or Saturday, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Bieber was initially slated to throw off the mound Tuesday, but that got pushed back to Wednesday and now his bullpen session has been delayed again. The right-hander did throw on flat ground Tuesday, and he's still aiming to return before the curtains close on the regular season. Bieber hasn't pitched since Aug. 20 due to right shoulder inflammation, so even if he does return next week his workload would be relatively limited.

Will throw off mound Tuesday Bieber (shoulder) will throw a side session off a mound Tuesday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bieber hasn't pitched since Aug. 20 due to shoulder inflammation, and he'll have to build his arm back up before returning to game action. The right-hander will be up against the clock to make it back in time before the end of the regular season. Bieber has made just 11 starts this season, posting a 4.37 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 44:24 K:BB across 55.2 innings.

Shane Bieber's impending Blue Jays return gives him chance to become Guardians villain Shane Bieber could help push the Blue Jays over the Guardians in the American League Wild Card chase.

Aiming for mound work next week Manager John Schneider said Saturday that he hopes Bieber (shoulder) will be cleared to throw off a mound sometime next week, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bieber has been on the shelf with a right teres major strain since Aug. 25. He began throwing off flat ground Friday and will likely require another flat-ground session or two before moving to a mound. With slightly more than three weeks remaining in the regular season, it's more likely that the 31-year-old righty will have to wait until the postseason before rejoining the Blue Jays' pitching staff.

SEPTEMBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

May not be back until playoffs Bieber (shoulder) was scheduled to throw off flat ground Thursday, but he remains without a timeline for his return to game action, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Blue Jays have just 21 games left on their regular-season schedule, and it's looking increasingly likely that if Bieber pitches again this year, it will have to be in the playoffs. The veteran righty was just starting to find his form when he was shut down in late August with teres major inflammation, recording four quality starts in seven outings after the All-Star break with a 2.84 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over 38 innings.

Impact Bieber had shown no signs of being hurt, having allowed a combined two runs with a 12:2 K:BB over 13 innings covering his last two starts.
