Berríos racked up eight strikeouts on the evening while issuing only one free pass. The only blemish on his day was a two-run double off the bat of Alex Bregman in the fifth inning. The 30-year-old hurler got 13 swings and misses on 88 pitches on the night — five each on his sinker and changeup — while posting a strong CSW of 34 percent. Still 1-1 on the season, he’ll bring a 3.98 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and a 36/16 K/BB ratio (40 2/3 innings) into Wednesday’s matchup against the Angels in Los Angeles.

The Jays took a 1-0 lead in the top of the sixth to put Berríos in line for the win when he departed, but it disappeared in the seventh. The team did end up winning anyway to improve to 4-2 in Berríos’s outings this season. José himself, though, is just 1-1 with a 4.24 ERA. His next start will come against the Red Sox, which is also the team his lone win is against.

Berríos could have been pulled up 3-2 after six innings, but he was left in to start the seventh and gave up a homer to Ben Williamson before being removed. That his pitch count was so low likely factored into him remaining in the game — he wound up at 82 on the day — but he was far from dominant in striking out three and walking four. He’s 1-1 with a 5.02 ERA through five starts, and he doesn’t rate as a very good play against the Yankees next week.

Berríos did strike out six and walk one, but he got a friendly zone from the home plate umpire, who granted two called strike punchouts against Jordan Westburg on pitches that were clearly balls. Berríos gave up a run in each of his first four innings and will now take a 5.16 ERA into a start against Seattle next week. He should be treated as just a streamer at this point in his career.
