Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Will receive third opinion
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Wednesday that Tiedemann (forearm) will receive a third opinion from Dr. Neal ElAttrache, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.
Though initial imaging on Tiedemann's left forearm/elbow came back negative, he's since gotten a second opinion from Dr. Keith Meister and will now visit another renowned arm specialist in Dr. ElAttrache. After getting the third opinion, the southpaw and the Blue Jays will likely decide on a treatment plan for his forearm injury. Tiedemann is one of the most talented pitching prospects in baseball but has been plagued by arm issues since entering professional baseball in 2021.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Avoids serious injury
Recent testing showed Tiedemann isn't dealing with any structural damage in his forearm or elbow, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
Tiedemann was removed from his start July 10 due to forearm tightness, but it appears he's avoided a serious injury. A timetable for a return hasn't been established for the 21-year-old, but the Blue Jays are likely to be cautious with Tiedemann given how much trouble he's had staying healthy this season.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Heading for second opinion
Tiedemann (forearm) will go for a second opinion after imaging Friday showed no structural damage, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
The left-hander exited his July 10 start with forearm tightness and received an encouraging initial diagnosis, but the Blue Jays apparently want to make sure there's no underlying issues. Tiedemann is already on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Buffalo, and it's unclear when he'll be able to return to the mound.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Exits Triple-A start early
Tiedemann was removed from his start Wednesday at Triple-A Buffalo due to left forearm tightness, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
In his first start back from the 7-day injured list, Tiedemann was only able to get through one inning (27 pitches) before his forearm began bothering him. Ulnar nerve inflammation in his left elbow has limited the 21-year-old southpaw to just 17.1 innings across all minor-league levels this season, and he'll now presumably head in for imaging to determine whether he needs to miss even more time.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Dominant in Single-A
Tiedemann (elbow) struck out five over 2.1 scoreless, no-hit innings in a rehab start for Single-A Dunedin on Wednesday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Over his last two appearances for Dunedin, Tiedemann has allowed zero runs or hits while posting a 9:2 K:BB in 4.1 innings. The 21-year-old southpaw appears close to coming off the minor-league injured list and rejoining the staff at Triple-A Buffalo, but he would need to be built up further before the top prospect would be an option for the big-league rotation.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Languishes in first rehab start
Tiedemann (elbow) retired one batter via strikeout and gave up three earned runs on two hits and two walks in his rehab start Friday in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.
The left-hander was pitching in a game for the first time in more than two months, and the rust was evident. In addition to issuing two walks, Tiedemann was charged with two wild pitches in the 19-pitch outing. The 21-year-old will likely stick around in the FCL for at least one more rehab start and will look to show improved control before the Blue Jays decide whether he's fit to rejoin the Triple-A Buffalo rotation. He's resided on Buffalo's injured list since April 18 with left elbow inflammation.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Returning to mound Friday
Tiedemann (elbow) will make a rehab start with the Blue Jays' Florida Complex League affiliate Friday, Sam Dykstra of MiLB.com reports.
It will be the top prospect's first appearance since April 11, as he's been sidelined with left ulnar nerve inflammation in his pitching elbow. Tiedemann will eventually move up to Triple-A Buffalo, where he began this season before getting hurt. He's a candidate to join the Blue Jays at some point this season, but Tiedemann figures to remain in the minors for a while as he attempts to prove he can be healthy and effective for an extended period.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Close to rehab assignment
Tiedemann (elbow) threw a live batting practice session Friday and could begin a rehab assignment this week, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The 21-year-old lefty last pitched April 11 for Triple-A Buffalo before being shut down with what was diagnosed as ulnar nerve inflammation in his elbow, but he's close to resuming game action. Tiedemann will likely begin his rehab stint in the Florida Complex League or with Single-A Dunedin, and he could rejoin the Buffalo rotation by the end of June. If Tiedemann can manage to stay healthy, he remains a candidate to bolster the major-league staff in the second half.

Tiedemann faced hitters for the first time since being placed on the 7-day IL on April 18 with ulnar nerve inflammation. The next step for Tiedemann will be a rehab assignment, which will likely begin in the Florida Complex League or with Single-A Dunedin. Regardless, Tiedemann appears to be making strong progress and should be back with Triple-A Buffalo in June.

Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Throwing off mound again
Tiedemann (elbow) is back on a mound and throwing bullpens according to Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
Tiedemann has been out with ulnar nerve inflammation in his left elbow since late April and the team has been cautious in its approach to his recovery. Atkins said that the top prospect will be back in game action "relatively soon" and one silver lining of the injury is that it removed any concern about limiting his workload down the road this season.
