The Blue Jays have made significant starting pitching adds at various points of various seasons — not just trade deadline deals. At their best, they’ve helped win titles, breathe life into expectations, and change clubhouse dynamics.

Berrios’ outing came a little more than 90 minutes after Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins told a dug-out scrum that the team had put Ryu, the team's Opening Day starter, on the 10-day IL with what Atkins described as a neck strain. So as important as his performance – three runs on four hits with six strikeouts and a walk – was the fact Berrios said the abdominal issue that surfaced during his previous start was gone.

“I never had a day like that before,” said Berrios. “My mom called me yesterday and said: ‘Just do your work.’ I said: ‘Yes, mom, but they’re still like my good friends.'” Ryu’s last two starts were 2 1/3 and two innings, respectively, in which he allowed 13 hits and 12 earned runs. Atkins said that the neck strain was not related to the forearm tightness Ryu felt in his start before his two poor outings and added that the pitcher did not undergo an MRI before making the decision. Ryu, who started Friday, reported neck stiffness on Saturday morning after reporting.

“He’s been one of our aces the last few years,” Montoyo said of Ryu. “Hopefully this won’t take that long.”
