Naturally, now that the Blue Jays have traded Rowdy Tellez to the Milwaukee Brewers, the lefty power bat has started to find his stroke.

Because of course he did.

Tellez was traded to the Brewers back on July 6th in order to acquire Trevor Richards and give the bullpen a boost. The deal made a lot of sense at the time, as the Jays were badly in need of some help for their battered bullpen, and Tellez had all but fallen out of the Blue Jays’ rotation this season as he struggled to find the success he had in 2020.
