Fisher will work as the opener Friday against the Diamondbacks, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports. The righty will work ahead of bulk reliever Eric Lauer. Fisher has appeared in eight games out of the bullpen for Toronto this season, posting a microscopic 0.93 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 12:1 K:BB across 9.2 innings. Fisher pitched Tuesday and Wednesday this week, and his season high for pitches in a game is 32, so he's unlikely to work more than an inning or two.

Career History
Braydon Fisher: Breaking News
Continues strong start to season
Fisher struck out four over two scoreless innings of relief in Friday's win over the Twins. He didn't allow a hit or walk, but did hit a batter with a pitch. It was effectively mop-up duty, as Fisher worked the final two frames of a 10-4 victory, but it continued an impressive stretch for the 25-year-old righty to begin the season. Through six appearances and 8.1 innings, Fisher boasts a 0.00 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 10:1 K:BB with two holds, but he remains behind Jeff Hoffman, Tyler Rogers and Louis Varland in the pecking order for high-leverage work from the right side.
Not guaranteed bullpen spot
Fisher is a candidate to begin the season at Triple-A Buffalo, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports. The 25-year-old right-hander hasn't done anything this spring to lose his spot in the bullpen, posting a 1.59 ERA and 8:2 K:BB over 5.2 innings, but Fisher could be caught in a numbers game. With Eric Lauer now needed in the rotation due to injuries to Trey Yesavage (shoulder), Shane Bieber (forearm) and Jose Berrios (elbow), someone like Lazaro Estrada could claim a spot as the long reliever, while Rule 5 pick Angel Bastardo has also made a strong case for a bullpen job. Fisher and Mason Fluharty both have minor-league options remaining, but Fluharty is a left-hander, giving him a little more job security. As a rookie in 2025, Fisher posted a 2.70 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 62:19 K:BB over 50 innings in a middle relief role with seven wins and five holds in 52 appearances.
