A tough start to the season turned into a fresh start for newly acquired Toronto Blue Jay, Neil Ramirez. The 27-year old, who will turn 28 on May 25, left the Giants with an 8.71 ERA in nine games, while he pitched 10.1 innings. He struck out 18 batters- which caught the eye of Blue Jays management.
Career wise he owns a 3.72 ERA and a 1.337 WHIP in 96 relief appearances. The Virginia native spent time with the Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers, and the Minnesota Twins since entering the major leagues in 2014.
