Colombia’s Julio Teheran was scratched from his scheduled start against Canada in the World Baseball Classic because of shoulder discomfort during pregame work and was replaced by Austin Bergner for the game at San Juan, Puerto Rico.
A 35-year-old right-hander, Teheran last pitched in the major leagues in 2024 with the New York Mets. The two-time All-Star spent last season with Toros de Tijuana in the Mexican League.
Teheran is 81-82 with a 3.85 ERA in 248 starts and seven relief appearances for Atlanta (2011-19), the Los Angeles Angels (2020), Detroit (2021), Milwaukee (2023) and the Mets (2024).
