Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Yariel Rodriguez has been placed on the 15-day Injured List due to thoracic spine inflammation, following back soreness that started during his outing on Monday. This issue is a recurrence from spring training. In response, the Blue Jays have recalled pitcher Zach Pop from the taxi squad. Meanwhile, Alek Manoah, currently pitching in Triple-A Buffalo, is being considered as a potential replacement in the rotation. Manoah's recent performance includes facing the minimum through three innings, delivering three shutout innings with four strikeouts.

Just six pitches for Jose Berrios in top1. Lovely. #Bluejays
Alek Manoah, White Castle Special. 🤮🍔🍔🍔 https://t.co/XScqe1X9yw
#Bluejays note: Alek Manoah looks great tonight in Indy. Three shutout innings, 36 pitches, 4 Ks, 1 hit, no walks. #Bisons have four hits off a Paul Skenes. Zip-zip game.
So Alek Manoah is aware that Yariel Rodriguez has been placed on the injured list. Pitching for #Bisons tonight, Manoah has faced the minimum through 3ip, allowing 1 hit and striking out four. He's thrown just 36 pitches, 25 strikes. #Bluejays Come to BlueSky to chat!
Alek Manoah, Wicked Slider. 🤢 https://t.co/u2ZbSZeooF
Yariel Rodríguez injury: Blue Jays starting pitcher hits IL with back issue in latest hit to Toronto rotation https://t.co/HI7SchMCWK
Blue Jays do indeed place Yariel Rodriguez on IL with thoracic spine inflammation. Zach Pop recalled. https://t.co/bFry3lQDYm
The #BlueJays have placed Yariel Rodríguez on the 15-day IL with thoracic spine inflammation. It was going to take an injury to put Alek Manoah into the conversation. Manoah starts tonight in Triple-A Buffalo, but the Jays also have a chunk of off days to play with soon…
As expected, #Bluejays have placed Yariel Rodriguez on the 15-day Injured List with thoracic spine inflammation and Zach Pop has been recalled. #Jays don’t need a 5th starter for two weeks, though they’d prefer to use one. Paolo Espino and Alek Manoah are possibilities.
Yariel Rodriguez is dealing with some back soreness, which started during his outing last night, said manager John Schneider. Blue Jays are waiting to see how he checks out, Zach Pop is here on taxi just in case.
Yariel Rodriguez is experiencing back soreness following his start Monday night — similar to what he dealt with during spring training. Club will see how he responds to treatment today and go from there Zach Pop is with Blue Jays in Toronto on club’s taxi squad
