The Blue Jays placed closer Jordan Romano on the 15-day injured list Thursday with right elbow inflammation, one of four Toronto players to start the 2024 regular season on the IL.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. –

Designated hitter Daniel Vogelbach and backup catcher Brian Serven were selected to the big-league roster and right-hander Yosver Zulueta was designated for assignment. With Romano and Swanson on the IL, right-handers Wes Parsons, Mitch White, Trevor Richards and Nate Pearson will provide depth to a bullpen that will likely see Chad Green, Genesis Cabrera, Tim Mayza and Yimi Garcia serve in high-leverage spots.

Bassitt was tabbed to pitch Friday against fellow right-hander Aaron Civale. Kikuchi, a southpaw, will get the nod on Saturday against right-hander Zack Littell. Neither team named a starter for Sunday.
