The deal to shore up the bullpen is complete.
The Rockies announced Thursday morning that they have officially acquired right-handed reliever Seunghwan Oh from the Toronto Blue Jays. In return, the Blue Jays received minor-league infielder Chad Spanberger, minor-league outfielder Forrest Wall and a player to be named later.
Oh, 36, is 4-3 with two saves, a 2.68 ERA, 10 walks and 55 strikeouts in 48 relief appearances. His 48 appearances are tied for fifth in the American League, while his 5.50 strikeout-to-walk ratio ranks 10th among AL relievers.
He’s pitched very well lately, being scored upon just twice in his last 21 games since June 7, going 3-1 with one save and posting a 0.
