Blue Jays Consider Signing Free-Agent Reliever Adrian Morejon
The Toronto Blue Jays are exploring the possibility of signing free-agent reliever Adrian Morejon to strengthen their bullpen for the 2027 season. The team heavily relied on left-handed reliever Mason Fluharty during the 2026 season, who pitched in 83 games.
Morejon, a left-hander from the San Diego Padres, had a standout 2026 season, appearing in a career-high 76 games and pitching 86 innings with a 2.83 ERA and a 9-3 record. He also recorded 107 strikeouts, ranking third among MLB relievers.
The Blue Jays currently have limited depth in left-handed relief options, with only a few players like Brendon Little and Brendan Cellucci available. Morejon's high velocity and effective pitches, including a slider and changeup, could significantly enhance the team's performance alongside established pitchers like Tyler Rogers and Louis Varland.
