Blue Jays Acquire BerrĂos in Trade with Twins
Toronto Lands Coveted Starting Pitcher
The Toronto Blue Jays have made a significant move to bolster their starting rotation, acquiring right-handed pitcher JosĂ© BerrĂos from the Minnesota Twins in a trade. BerrĂos is a proven performer who will immediately become the ace of the Blue Jays' staff.
Twins' Homegrown Star Departs
BerrĂos, a 27-year-old Puerto Rican, was one of the few homegrown pitchers that the Twins had successfully drafted and developed. He made his MLB debut in 2016 and quickly established himself as a reliable starter. In 2018, he finished with a 12-11 record and a 3.68 ERA, earning an All-Star selection.
Blue Jays Fill Rotation Hole
For the Blue Jays, the acquisition of BerrĂos fills a much-needed hole in their starting rotation. The team has struggled to find consistency in recent years, and BerrĂos' presence will provide a significant upgrade. He joins a staff that already includes Hyun Jin Ryu and Robbie Ray, forming a formidable trio at the top of the rotation.
