Bieber (elbow) tossed six scoreless innings Thursday, allowing five hits and a walk while striking out five batters in a rehab outing with Triple-A Buffalo, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Bieber was making his second start with Buffalo, and he was far more successful this time around, notching 46 strikes over 62 total pitches after surrendering eight runs over his prior two rehab outings. The right-hander was able to average 91.4 mph on his fastball, peaking at 93 mph on the day. Bieber may need just one more rehab start before making his 2026 debut with the Blue Jays.
