Addison Barger Likely to Come Off Injured List on Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankles) is traveling on Friday and will "most likely" be activated from the 10-day injured list on Saturday, manager John Schneider told Shi Davidi of Sportsnet. The Blue Jays want to give Barger a day to reset and envision a busy workload for him once he's back in the big leagues. The 26-year-old left-handed hitter only played in three minor-league rehab games with Single-A Dunedin, going 2-for-9 at the plate, with both of his hits leaving the yard. The former sixth-rounder in 2018 went just 1-for-19 (.053) with two RBI, three walks, and six strikeouts in 23 plate appearances over eight games to begin the 2026 season with the Jays, but he's worth a look in deeper fantasy formats for outfield depth now that he's on the cusp of his return. Barger hit the ball hard consistently in his first full season in the majors in 2025, slashing .243/.301/.454 with a .756 OPS, 21 homers, 74 RBI, 61 runs scored, and four steals in 135 regular-season games played. He's rostered in only 28% of Yahoo leagues on the verge of his activation.

Addison Barger Expected to be Activated on Friday

The plan is for Toronto Blue Jays third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankles) to come off the 10-day injured list for Friday's series opener against the Los Angeles Angels, according to Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet. Barger got off to a rough start to the 2026 season at the plate before spraining both of his ankles. The 26-year-old is nearing full health, though, and will return for a series against the Angels at the Rogers Centre. Before landing on the 10-day injured list, Barger went just 1-for-19 at the plate with two RBI, a run scored, three walks, and six strikeouts in eight games played. In his first full season in the majors in 2025, he slashed .243/.301/.454 with a .756 OPS, 21 home runs, 74 RBI, 61 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 135 regular-season games while stepping up clutch in the team's run to the World Series in the postseason. Barger doesn't have a ton of plate skills, but he hit the ball hard more often than not last year, and he should play regularly against right-handed pitchers when he returns. He's currently rostered in only 27% of Yahoo leagues.

Addison Barger Could Rejoin Blue Jays as Soon as Wednesday

Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankles) could make his return to the big leagues as soon as Wednesday, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Bannon reports that a return on Friday has been characterized as the "worst-case scenario" for Barger. The 26-year-old is currently on a rehab assignment with Single-A Dunedin while he works his way back from injuries to both of his ankles. Barger got off to a rough start to his 2026 season before getting injured, hitting .053/.174/.105 with two RBI and a run scored in a small sample size of 23 plate appearances. However, he hit 21 home runs in 502 plate appearances for Toronto in 2025, and mashed right-handed pitching to a .788 OPS. Once healthy, Barger should see playing time in the corner outfield for the Blue Jays and could be worth adding off the waiver wire for fantasy managers.

Addison Barger Could Rejoin the Jays Next Week

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankles) is scheduled to run the bases for the first time on Thursday, and he could head for a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend and rejoin the Jays next week, according to Mitch Bannon of The Athletic. Barger is recovering from an injury to both of his ankles that he suffered when sliding back on April 5. The 26-year-old left-handed hitter was off to a rough start at the plate before landing on the 10-day injured list, too, going just 1-for-19 with two RBI and a run scored in his first eight games. It's a small sample size, though, and Barger should play regularly in Toronto in right field against right-handed pitchers when he's back to full speed and with the big-league club. The former sixth-round pick in 2018 was a postseason hero for Toronto last fall in their run to the World Series, and he slashed .243/.301/.454 with 21 home runs, 74 RBI, 61 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 135 regular-season games in 2025 in his first full year in the majors for the Jays. Barger is rostered in 27% of Yahoo leagues at the moment while he recovers from injuries to both of his ankles.

Addison Barger is Ramping Up Baseball Activities

Toronto Blue Jays infielder/outfielder Addison Barger (ankle) is beginning to ramp up his baseball activities, according to Arden Zwelling. Barger is currently working his way back after spraining both his ankles. The plan is for Barger to begin running the bases and facing live pitching. Once he completes those tasks, Barger will be sent on a minor league rehab assignment for multiple games. It sounds like the 26-year-old is making progress, but is still a few weeks away from returning. The Jays didn't give an exact timetable, but sometime in early May would make sense for his return.

Addison Barger Expected to Resume Swinging This Weekend

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankles) has resumed baseball activities at the team's spring training complex in Florida, according to Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. Barger played catch over the last two days and is expected to resume swinging on Friday or Saturday. The goal is for Barger to resume running by Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. The 26-year-old was a hero during the team's World Series run last fall, but he got off to a rough start in 2026 before landing on the 10-day injured list with sprained ankles. In a small sample size of just eight games, Barger went 1-for-19 (.053) at the plate with a double, two RBI, a run scored, three walks, and six strikeouts in 23 plate appearances. Barger will not come off the IL when he's eligible on Friday, but depending on how his rehab goes, he could be an option to rejoin the big-league roster for the start of their next homestand on Friday, April 24.

Addison Barger Sidelined From Baseball Activity Through Monday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder/third baseman Addison Barger (ankles) will stay sidelined from baseball activity through Monday's off day, manager John Schneider told Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet. Barger's left ankle is more sore than his right ankle, but he's believed to be making progress. Barger was placed on the 10-day injured list with soreness in both of his ankles, and he's unlikely to return to the team when he's eligible to be reinstated on April 16. His ankle injuries aren't believed to be overly serious, though, so barring a setback once he resumes baseball activities, we'd expect him to be back in Toronto before the end of April. The 26-year-old left-handed hitter was likely affected by his ankles in his first eight games, as he had just one hit (a double) in his first 23 plate appearances with two RBI, three walks, and six stolen bases.

Blue Jays Hopeful Addison Barger Won't be Out Long

The Toronto Blue Jays are hopeful that outfielder/third baseman Addison Barger (ankle) will need the minimum of 10 days on the injured list after spraining his left ankle running out a ground ball in Chicago, according to MLB.com. Toronto placed Barger on the IL on Tuesday. The 26-year-old might benefit from a little time off early in the season, as he had gotten off to a very slow start at the plate before injuring his ankle. In eight games, he has just one hit (a double) in 23 plate appearances with two RBI, a run scored, three walks, and six strikeouts. Barger hit .243/.301/.454 with 21 home runs, 74 RBI, 61 runs scored, and four stolen bases in 135 regular-season games in 2025 in his first full season in the majors before becoming a postseason hero in the team's run to the World Series last fall. It's still very early in 2026, but Barger's fantasy stock is trending down after his slow start and then his ankle injury.

Addison Barger is Heading to the Injured List

Toronto Blue Jays third baseman/outfielder Addison Barger (ankle) was placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 6. This news comes after Barger suffered a left ankle sprain during Sunday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The Jays are hopeful that it's a minimal stay on the IL for Barger. Jays' manager John Schneider said Barger is trending in the right direction, but he's not eligible to rejoin the team until April 16. In a corresponding move, infielder Tyler Fitzgerald has been recalled from Triple-A Buffalo. The expectation is that Nathan Lukes and Myles Straw are likely to gain the most playing time while Barger is sidelined.

Blue Jays to Make a Decision on Addison Barger Soon

Sportsnet's Shi Davidi reports that a decision is coming on Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Addison Barger (ankles), who left Sunday's game early against the Chicago White Sox with discomfort in both of his ankles. "We'll probably figure it out today, just to see what he can or can't do," said manager John Schneider. Barger has been walking with a limp since being pulled early, and he's not in Monday's starting lineup at the Rogers Centre in a World Series rematch against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Schneider said on Monday that the 26-year-old is "trending in the right direction," but the team isn't ruling out a stint on the injured list. If Barger is forced to the 10-day IL, infielder Tyler Fitzgerald could take his place on the active roster after Toronto recently acquired him in a trade with the San Francisco Giants. It's been a rough go in 2026 so far for Barger, who was a postseason hero for the Jays, as he has just one hit in 23 plate appearances with two RBI, three walks, and six strikeouts in his first eight games played.
