www.nbcsports.comHere’s the latest I can gather based on recent public reports:

- He reportedly recorded his first Major League home run in April 2026, contributing to a Blue Jays' comeback win. This milestone drew coverage in multiple outlets.
- Throughout early April 2026, pundits discussed Valenzuela potentially logging catching duties depending on Alejandro Kirk’s status, with Heineman also in the mix behind the plate.
- For fantasy and stats context, several sources provided updated lines and roster notes tied to his performance in Buffalo prior to recall, and projected playing time once up with Toronto.
