Yimi García may not throw another pitch in 2025.

The 35-year-old reliever is scheduled to visit with elbow specialist Dr. Keith Meister — who specializes in elbow reconstruction surgery — after continuing to experience ulnar nerve symptoms in his right elbow/forearm, Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said ahead of Monday’s series opener versus the Minnesota Twins, as relayed by Sportsnet’s Arden Zwelling.

García received a cortisone injection in late July and was shut down for multiple weeks before he was cleared to resume playing catch. But lingering pain and discomfort prompted a recent visit to Toronto, where he was re-evaluated by the club’s training staff — which proved unproductive, as Schneider explained last week.

At this point, all options are likely on the table for the hard-throwing righty, including surgery. As such, the Blue Jays probably need to operate as if he won’t be an option in the bullpen down the stretch and into October.

It’s been nearly two months since García — signed to a two-year $15-million contract last winter — made his last major league appearance, which came on July 2 versus the New York Yankees. Since then, the team has added Seranthony Domínguez and Louis Varland to the back end of the bullpen, additions that have helped immensely in García’s absence.

If García doesn’t return, he’ll finish with a 3.86 ERA, 3.83 FIP and 25 strikeouts over 21 innings, recording a trio of saves in seven opportunities during his first season since returning to the organization in free agency.

Schneider also provided an update on Anthony Santander’s hitting progression, which has now advanced to hitting off a high-velocity pitching machine. It’s the latest step in his recovery from a shoulder injury that has plagued his inaugural campaign in Toronto. He’s also scheduled to field fly balls in the outfield for the first time on Monday.

Additionally, Nick Sandlin has been shut down after recently experiencing elbow discomfort while throwing from 120 feet. But the Blue Jays hope it’s a minor setback and are optimistic that he can resume tossing following a few days of rest.
