Toronto Blue Jays closer Roberto Osuna said he is dealing with an anxiety issue and is unsure when he will be available to pitch again.
Osuna disclosed his situation to reporters on Saturday morning, less than 24 hours after not pitching in a save situation for the Blue Jays. The hard-throwing right-hander said he's not sure whether he'll be available to face the Kansas City Royals on Saturday as he tries to work through his issues.
>"I really don't know how to explain it. I just feel anxious, I feel like I'm lost a little bit right now," Osuna said through a translator. "I'm just a little bit lost right now.
>"This has nothing to do with me being on the field. I feel great out there. It's just when I'm out of baseball, when I'm not on the field, that I feel just weird and a little bit lost."
After Kansas City scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 5-4 victory on Friday night, Toronto manager John Gibbons said that Osuna wasn't feeling well, declining to discuss the matter further.
>"I wish I knew how to get out of this, but we're working on it, trying to find ways to see what can make me feel better," he said. "But, to be honest, I just don't know."
Samuel Wilson
Shut down Osuna for the season. This ballclub can tank for picks. No need for a closer on a losing ballteam.
Jacob Adams
>anxiety issues isn't this what grienke had?
Isaiah Powell
Trade Osuna for picks Trade Donaldson for picks DFA/Trade Tulo/Martin/Autista/Travis DFA/Trade entire bullpen and existing farm shitters (Ceciliani/Alford/Lellez/Pentelost) Fire Gibbons and entire coaching staff
Go 0-162 next season and prep for the world series run in 2030
