Blue Jays manager John Schneider announced that right-hander Cody Ponce will undergo surgery for a sprained ACL in his right knee, likely ending his season as he is already on the 60-day injured list. Ponce sustained the injury during his team debut while fielding a grounder, and despite avoiding a full tear, surgery is now necessary. The Blue Jays, facing a depleted rotation with several pitchers on the injured list, had hoped Ponce would be a successful comeback story after his impressive tenure overseas. As he focuses on rehabilitation, the team’s pitching situation remains precarious with rotation adjustments anticipated in the coming weeks.
