Blue Jays place Jameson Taillon on IL as playoffs draw near

The Toronto Blue Jays announce that starting pitcher Jameson Taillon is going to the IL amid the club’s playoff push.
The Toronto Blue Jays are in the mix for a possible playoff appearance this year, as the club is knocking on the door of a spot in the Wild Card. However, the team was forced to place starting pitcher Jameson Taillon on the IL at the worst possible time of the season.
Reports indicate that the 34-year-old right-hander is going on the 15-day IL due to right elbow inflammation. In a corresponding move, Toronto called up left-hander Ricky Tiedemann from Triple-A Buffalo.
“ROSTER MOVES,” the Blue Jays posted on X. “LHP Ricky Tiedemann recalled from Triple-A and will be active tonight. RHP Jameson Taillon (right elbow inflammation) placed on the 15-day IL.”
This story is currently developing, and more information will be available soon.
