Published on April 4, 2026.
The Toronto Blue Jays have placed two-time All-Star catcher Alejandro Kirk on the 10-day injured list with a dislocated and fractured left thumb. The team also recalled catcher Brandon Valenzuela from Triple-A Buffalo. Kirk was injured during a game against the Chicago White Sox when Austin Hays hit a pitch off Kirk's glove. The Blue Jays assigned 36-year-old left-hander Patrick Corbin to Single-A Dunedin a day after signing him to a one-year contract. Manager John Schneider did not specify a timeline for Kirk's return.
