Scouting Report: Richard Bleier
Chicago Cubs | RP
Overall
Summary
Richard Bleier's current status is unclear from the provided sources, which primarily focus on other Blue Jays players and MLB injuries. However, based on the context of Blue Jays injury reports from May 2026, the team is dealing with significant rotation injuries including José Berríos (stress fracture with possible loose bodies in elbow, surgery on the table), Shane Bieber and Max Scherzer (both progressing in throwing). The Blue Jays' rotation has been decimated by injuries, forcing them to rely on Rule 5 pick Spencer Miles in a bulk role. Without specific information about Bleier, the assessment reflects the broader organizational injury crisis affecting the Blue Jays pitching staff.
Strengths
