Blue Jays trade reliever Justin Bruihl to Guardians for cash considerations
The Toronto Blue Jays traded left-hander Justin Bruihl to the Cleveland Guardians in exchange for cash considerations, the team said Wednesday.
Bruihl was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays on Monday after they agreed to terms with fellow reliever Tyler Rogers on a three-year contract worth $37 million US.
Bruihl did not record a decision over 15 appearances with Toronto this past season. He had a 5.27 earned-run average.
Bruihl made one playoff appearance, working one-third of an inning in Toronto's 13-7 win over the New York Yankees in Game 2 of the American League Division Series.
The 28-year-old southpaw made his big-league debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2021.
He has also played for the Colorado Rockies and Pittsburgh Pirates.
