The trade is now official. Domínguez remains one of the more reliable setup arms in baseball and will bolster Toronto’s high-leverage mix in front of closer Jeff Hoffman. The hard-throwing 30-year-old has posted an impressive 3.24 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 54/24 K/BB ratio across 41 2/3 innings (43 appearances) this season. His exit from Baltimore likely pushes Andrew Kittredge and Yennier Cano into the ninth-inning mix while Félix Bautista (shoulder) remains on the injured list.
