Jose Berrios Throws 25 Pitches on Friday
Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios (elbow) threw 25 pitches in a bullpen session in camp on Friday, manager John Schneider told Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. Berrios is on the 15-day injured list to begin the 2026 regular season after being diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right elbow last week. The Blue Jays are hoping that the 31-year-old can continue to pitch through it, but the problem is that he hasn't appeared in a spring training game in three weeks, so he needs to build his arm back up. The veteran Puerto Rican doesn't have a timetable for when he might make his season debut in Toronto, but barring a setback, it could be possible for him to rejoin the Blue Jays before the end of April. Berrios went 9-5 in 2025 in his fourth full season with the Jays, recording a 4.17 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, and 138:56 K:BB in 166 innings pitched. Since the start of the 2019 season, Berrios has more innings on his arm than any other pitcher, and all the tread on his tires appears to be catching up with him. Don't be surprised if Toronto moves him into a long-relief role sooner than later in 2026.
