Blue Jays GM Ross Atkins gives an injury update on Will Wagner, Daulton Varsho and Bo Bichette
Atkins spoke to the media today for the first time since the end of the season conference in which most questions were about what went wrong during the disastrous 2024 season.
This time around, the questions were mostly about free agency but Atkins did also give some good updates about a few of the Blue Jays injured players which for the most part was good news.
The Blue Jays GM stated that everyone seems to be recovering well, that Bichette and Wagner are on track to be ready for Opening Day while Varsho is more of a question mark.
Asked about the rehab work of Bo Bichette, Will Wagner & Daulton Varsho, Atkins said «no one's behind schedule.» Bichette & Wagner on track for opening day. Varsho: you never know but «that could be unrealistic.» Alek Manoah also off to «a good start» with his throwing program.
Atkins also stated that the Blue Jays Blue Jays pitcher Alek Manoah is also off to a good start in his recovery after surgery but will not be ready in time for Opening Day like the rest of them.
This is all good news for the Blue Jays as starting the season off with Varsho, Bichette and Wagner will be a huge plus.
Hopefully Manoah continues to recover properly and will be ready sooner than expected.
