The Blue Jays transferred Burr (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Toronto replaced Burr on the 40-man roster with right-hander Casey Lawrence, whom the club claimed off waivers from Seattle on Monday. As a result of his move to the 60-day IL, Burr -- who has been on the shelf all season while recovering from right shoulder inflammation -- won't be eligible to make his 2025 debut until late May. Burr recently resumed throwing off a mound, but he's likely a week or more away from heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment.

Burr (shoulder) is scheduled for a bullpen session Saturday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr opened the season on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation. He was able to resume throwing off a mound April 12, and as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks, he'll likely be cleared to start facing live hitters before long. Burr appeared in 34 games (four starts) for the Blue Jays in 2024 and posted a 4.13 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 47:12 K:BB across 32.2 innings.

Burr (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Right shoulder inflammation has plagued Burr since the start of spring training, but his return to a mound Saturday marks a significant step in his recovery. If he can get through a few more sessions with no problems, he'll likely receive the green light to face hitters before eventually moving on to a rehab assignment.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Friday that Burr (shoulder) could be ready to throw a bullpen session next week, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr has been dealing with right shoulder inflammation since the beginning of spring training but is coming along steadily. He'll require a rehab assignment before returning, and it's going to be a while before he's ready to pitch in games.

Burr (shoulder) is throwing on flat ground but is not ready to throw off a mound yet, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr missed all of spring training and landed on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation. While it's certainly a good sign he's able to play catch, the reliever does not appear to be close to returning.

The Blue Jays placed Burr on the 15-day injured list Thursday due to right shoulder inflammation, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr was unable to make any appearances in the Grapefruit League on account of the shoulder issue, so his move to the IL was fully expected. The right-hander will be eligible to come off the IL on April 8, but he'll likely need more time beyond that before the Blue Jays deem him ready to join the big-league bullpen.

Burr has been dealing with right shoulder fatigue and is not expected to pitch in games soon, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr's shoulder has been giving him problems for most of spring training, as he dealt with a bout of tendinitis in February. Now battling fatigue, the right-hander has been limited to light throwing, and Toronto will likely be extra cautious building him back up to ensure his shoulder isn't an issue in the future. It's unclear if he'll be available for Opening Day.

Burr has been managing shoulder tendinitis and "backed off" throwing for a few days, though he's playing catch Saturday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Burr may be able to build back up quickly and doesn't seem to be at risk of missing time to start the regular season. The veteran reliever is slated for a middle-relief role in Toronto's bullpen for the coming campaign after posting a 4.13 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 47:12 K:BB over 32.2 innings in 34 games during the 2024 season.

Burr is opening Sunday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Burr has not given up a run while notching eight strikeouts in 4.1 innings while working as an opener this season. Ryan Yarbrough could come in to log some bulk innings after Burr exits.

Burr will serve as the Blue Jays' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Rays, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
He'll draw his third opener assignment of the season and his second of September. In his previous two starts, Burr covered one and two innings, so expect him to fall somewhere in that range again Sunday before he turns the game over to the bullpen. Ryan Yarbrough is expected to work in bulk relief behind Burr.
