Berríos, 31, will miss significant time after elbow inflammation shelved him before the season began.
Blue Jays pitcher Jose Berríos will undergo elbow surgery after inflammation was detected during spring training. Berríos, 31, has not pitched in the majors this season and now faces a recovery timeline that extends his absence indefinitely.
Berríos signed a five-year, $80M deal with Toronto in 2021 and was slated as a rotation anchor. The elbow issue removes him from consideration for the remainder of the season and reshapes the Jays' starting-pitcher depth for the stretch run.
