Ricky Tiedemann Back on the Mound | Toronto Blue Jays News

Ricky Tiedemann’s comeback is heating up—after nearly two years sidelined by Tommy John surgery and neck issues, the Blue Jays’ top prospect returned to the mound Sunday, tossing a scoreless inning with two strikeouts and a fastball touching 97 mph. While stats aren’t the focus, the outing marked a critical milestone in his gradual rehab, with velocity averaging over 96 mph and a smart, cautious plan ahead. At 23, Tiedemann’s reconditioning emphasizes efficiency over brute strength, aiming for long-term health and performance. Next stop: Triple-A Buffalo in a bullpen role, with a potential major league debut as early as late 2026—if all goes well, he’ll enter spring training healthy, a major win in itself.
