The Toronto Blue Jays made moves to strengthen their bullpen this week, as the MLB trade deadline day became one of the most chaotic in history on Thursday. The Jays acquired right-handed reliever Seranthony Dominguez from the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday (while the two teams were playing each other in a doubleheader, no less), and fortified that trade by adding righty Louis Varland to their bullpen in a deal that also yielded first baseman Ty France from the Minnesota Twins.
Dominguez and Varland will join a much-improved unit that includes Brendon Little, Yariel Rodriguez, Braydon Fisher, and closer Jeff Hoffman, who will be asked to get high-leverage outs down the stretch.
