José Berríos's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jose Berrios improved to 2-0 in Monday's 5-2 win over the Mariners. Berrios tossed 6 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing four hits and a walk with six strikeouts. The 29-year-old has gotten off to a strong start with a 1.45 ERA and a 6.75 K/9 rate in his first three starts and 18 2/3 IP. He should have a good chance to continue his hot streak in his next scheduled start against the Rockies at home.

Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider announced on Tuesday morning that right-hander Jose Berrios will make the team's Opening Day start on March 28 on the road against the Tampa Bay Rays. "He embodies what we're talking about when we talk about stuff, durability, teammate, professionalism. I was thrilled to give him that news this morning," Schneider said. Berrios gets the nod with ace Kevin Gausman (shoulder) working through shoulder issues in spring training. It won't be the easiest matchup for DFS purposes against Toronto's American League East rival on the road. The 29-year-old Puerto Rican hurler had a solid year in 2023 in his second year in Toronto, going 11-12 with a 3.65 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 52 walks and 184 K's in 32 starts. Berrios isn't as intriguing as he once was in fantasy, but he still has a solid floor as a back-end starter.

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios was in fine form on Tuesday as he tossed three scoreless innings while allowing two hits and one walk against three strikeouts. It was his second outing of the spring and the veteran has yet to allow an earned run in five innings as he looks to build off an encouraging 2023 season, his second with the Blue Jays. The 29-year-old bounced back from a tough 2022 season and worked to a 3.65 ERA alongside a healthy 16.9% K-BB% across 32 starts. While he hasn't been elite throughout his eight-year MLB career, Berrios provides a solid floor and has been fully healthy throughout his career. He has posted an ERA of 3.89 or better in five of his last seven seasons and he rarely self inflicts harm thanks to a solid 7.1% career BB%.
