Latest News About Trey Yesavage

Here’s the latest on Trey Yesavage, based on recent reporting.

• As of April 17, 2026, Yesavage was approaching a minor-league start in Buffalo with a goal to reach about 75 pitches as part of his return from a right shoulder injury. This update suggested he was on track for another rehab outing before he would re-enter the majors [source: Yardbarker article about John Schneider’s update on Yesavage, 2026-04-17].[1]

• By early May 2026, Yesavage had been activated from the 15-day injured list and was set for his season debut against the Boston Red Sox, though his workload was expected to be limited as he built back up after a shoulder impingement. He had participated in multiple rehab starts with Buffalo and Dunedin, totaling several innings and strikeouts across the appearances [source: HEAVY article on May 4, 2026; Milb.com reference in the April 14 rehab recap].[2]

• Additional rehab updates in mid-April indicated Yesavage threw around 64–71 pitches in rehab starts, with discussions around adjusting to a bigger workload (around 70 pitches) as he moved closer to a full MLB return. The team indicated he might have one more minor-league start before activation [source: Yardbarker April 9/10 updates; Rotowire rehab notes April 14].[3][4]

• Context on his MLB status from prior coverage shows Yesavage is a young pitching prospect who spent the 2025 season in the majors with a notable postseason performance, and in 2026 he has been working back from a shoulder issue that delayed his season start. Recent reports emphasize health and pitch-count management rather than immediate, full workloads [sources: Yardbarker April 9/17 updates; Rotowire April 14 notes; MLB/MiLB context in general].[4][8][1][3]
