Summary
Blue Jays’ infielder/outfielder Addison Barger is sidelined for the rest of the 2026 season after needing elbow surgery—likely extending into 2027—dealing a major blow to a team already struggling at 47-56 and six games out of a wild card spot. Though Barger’s 2025 breakout season (21 HR, 32 doubles) is now a memory, his limited 2026 impact (just 9 games) makes this loss sting even more. With the trade deadline looming, the injury could force the Jays to pivot—buyers or sellers? The Red Sox await, and the Jays must figure out how to keep fighting without him.
