Hits injured list Yates (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Impact The move is merely a formality, as Yates will miss over a year while recovering from Tommy John surgery. It's only a matter of time before he shifts to the 60-day injured list whenever the Blue Jays need to clear a spot on the 40-man roster.

Undergoes successful surgery Yates underwent successful Tommy John surgery Wednesday, Gregor Chisholm of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact Yates had already been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to an elbow injury, and the 34-year-old officially underwent his second Tommy John surgery of his career Wednesday. Yates will face a lengthy recovery timetable but could be back on the mound at some point in 2022. Jordan Romano and Rafael Dolis are the leading candidates to take over as Toronto's closer in 2021.

Jays' Yates faces year-ending elbow surgery; Springer ailing
Toronto Blue Jays reliever Kirby Yates is expected to have season-ending surgery on his right elbowMARCH 23, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Ruled out for season Yates' elbow injury is serious enough to shut him down for the season and will probably lead to his second Tommy John surgery, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
Impact Previous reports indicated that Yates would miss multiple weeks with a flexor pronator strain in his right arm, but it appears as though the diagnosis is far more serious than that. It's not yet confirmed that he'll require Tommy John surgery, but there doesn't appear to be any hope of him pitching this season even if he avoids the procedure. He underwent the surgery once already back in 2006, prior to the start of his professional career, and it's tough to have much optimism for his future given that he'll be 35 years old when he eventually returns. Jordan Romano and Rafael Dolis are the leading candidates to close for the Blue Jays in his absence.
