Alek Manoah Moved To 60-Day Injured List

The Toronto Blue Jays moved right-hander Alek Manoah (elbow) to the 60-day injured list on Monday to make room on the 40-man roster for left-hander Easton Lucas, who they claimed off waivers from the Detroit Tigers. Lucas has been optioned to Triple-A Buffalo. Manoah had already been ruled out for the rest of the 2024 season after having an internal-brace procedure on his right elbow after he was diagnosed with a sprained UCL in June. Not only will the 26-year-old miss the rest of this year, but he's unlikely to be an option for Toronto's starting rotation again until around midseason in 2025. The former 11th overall pick in 2019 out of West Virginia finished third in the American League Cy Young voting in 2022 before completely falling apart in 2023 and being optioned to the minors. He was only able to make five starts in 2024 before his elbow injury, allowing 16 runs (10 earned) on 17 hits (five homers) while walking eight and fanning 26 in 24 1/3 innings.

Alek Manoah Ditches Arm Brace

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Alek Manoah (elbow) revealed on his X account on Monday that had the brace removed from his surgically repaired right elbow. After a disastrous 2023 season, Manoah made five starts for the Blue Jays this year before undergoing an internal-brace procedure on his right elbow six weeks ago. The 26-year-old is out for the remainder of the 2024 campaign and will most likely miss most of next year as well, although his internal-brace procedure should allow him to recover faster than if he had traditional Tommy John reconstruction. An All-Star for the first time in 2022, Manoah has completely fallen off the fantasy radar despite posting a decent 3.70 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 26 strikeouts and eight walks in 24 1/3 innings this year.

Alek Manoah Lands On Injured List With Elbow Sprain

The Toronto Blue Jays announced on Friday that they have placed right-hander Alek Manoah (elbow) on the 15-day injured list with a right-elbow sprain. In other moves, the team acquired right-hander Ryan Burr from the Philadelphia Phillies in exchange for cash considerations and designated right-hander Joel Kuhnel for assignment. Manoah is reportedly going for a second opinion on his right elbow, according to sources, but the expectation at this point is that he's likely to miss an extended period of time. The 26-year-old is dealing with damage to his UCL, which is going to require significant rest and could eventually lead to surgery down the road. After a disastrous 2023 campaign in which he was demoted to the minors, Manoah has held his own in five starts in Toronto this year, going 1-2 with a 3.70 ERA and 1.03 WHIP with 26 strikeouts and eight walks in 24 1/3 innings.

Alek Manoah Pulled Due To Elbow Discomfort

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (elbow) left Wednesday's game against the hosting Chicago White Sox due to right elbow discomfort in the second inning after striking out three over 1 2/3 scoreless innings of work. There was nothing obvious as to why Manoah needed to exit the contest at first, but there wasn't much discussion on the mound before he departed and Trevor Richards took over. Manoah should be deemed day-to-day ahead of his next projected start that lines up for Tuesday against the division-rival Baltimore Orioles, but there's a chance he may need to either miss a turn in the rotation or head to the injured list. It's not what you want to hear after the inconsistent 26-year-old right-hander didn't rejoin Toronto's rotation until early May due to soreness in his right shoulder, but he's got a solid 3.70 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, and 26:8 K:BB through 24 1/3 frames (five starts) this season. UPDATE: Manoah will get an MRI on his right elbow on Thursday, according to manager John Schneider.

Alek Manoah Tosses Seven Scoreless Innings

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah was outstanding during Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. The right-hander struck over seven batters, allowing just one hit over seven scoreless innings of work. Fantasy managers should be well aware of Manoah's up-and-down career in the MLB. This was a strong outing but fantasy managers shouldn't jump onto the bandwagon yet.

Alek Manoah Saddled With Tough-Luck Loss On Sunday

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Alek Manoah had his best start in a long time on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins. Manoah allowed three runs (none earned) across seven innings of work and only threw 78 pitches. He struck out six batters while issuing one walk. Manoah was cruising through the start, but an error by Blue Jays infielder Ernie Clement in the seventh inning turned into a three-run home run from Carlos Santana three batters later. It was nice to see Manoah hold his own against a strong lineup after he gave up seven runs in his first start of the season. He is by no means a must-roster player, but there is some more streaming intrigue surrounding him for his next projected start against the Tampa Bay Rays. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Manoah and consider picking him up if he strings together some momentum on the mound.

Alek Manoah Shelled In 2024 Debut

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah got rocked in his first start of the season against the Washington Nationals on Sunday. Manoah allowed seven runs (six earned) in just four innings, giving up six hits and walking four while striking out six. He showed glimpses of his former self, but overall it was a lackluster performance for the big righty. The Jays have already committed to Manoah for at least one more start, but he will have to be much better to instill confidence that they can keep rolling with him. Fantasy managers should not consider starting Manoah until he can consistently deliver good outings, and he can be dropped outside of the deepest of leagues.

Alek Manoah To Start Sunday For Blue Jays

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Alek Manoah (shoulder) is slated to make his season debut on Sunday afternoon against the Washington Nationals. The 26-year-old threw a side session on Friday after he was rocked for a 6.50 ERA across four starts with Triple-A Buffalo to begin his season. It's been tough sledding for Manoah since he was named a Cy Young finalist in the 2022 season as he posted a 5.87 ERA alongside a monster 14.2% BB% across 19 big-league starts. He was also optioned to the team's Florida spring training complex and refused an assignment to Buffalo after he scuffled in his big-league return. He will take on a Nationals offense that entered Saturday's action ranked 18th with a .303 wOBA on the season.

Alek Manoah Could Start On Sunday

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (shoulder) is scheduled to throw a side session on Friday. The right-hander is working his way back from a shoulder issue but appears to be ready to return. Manoah struck out 12 batters over six scoreless innings during his last rehab start. That being said, Manoah is a potential option to pitch during Sunday's game with Yariel Rodriguez (back) going down. Manoah has been up-and-down during his time in the big leagues, but a matchup against the Washington Nationals does give him some streaming appeal.

Alek Manoah Dominates In Fifth Rehab Start

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (shoulder) dominated in his fifth rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, throwing six innings of one-run ball on just two hits and two walks while striking out 12 batters. Manoah's return from soreness in his right shoulder appears to be on the horizon, and with rookie right-hander Yariel Rodriguez (back) getting placed on the injured list on Tuesday, Manoah appears to have a spot in Toronto's rotation waiting for him. The big 26-year-old right-hander is looking at an early-May activation from the IL, and Sunday's favorable matchup on the road against the Washington Nationals might be the date fantasy managers can circle on their calendars for Manoah's 2024 regular-season debut. Although Manoah limped to a 5.87 ERA, 1.74 WHIP, and 79:59 K:BB over 87 1/3 frames last year, he'd carry streaming appeal if he ultimately takes the ball on Sunday against the Nats.
