The Mariners have acquired right-handed reliever Yimi Garcia from the Blue Jays in a trade that includes outfielder Jonatan Clase and minor league catcher Jacob Sharp heading to Toronto.
Garcia, a rental for the Jays, has a contract beefed up through performance incentives, making it a three-year, $18MM pact. He'll bolster a Mariners bullpen hit by injuries.
Garcia's performance this year has been impressive, with a career-high fastball speed, a top tier 36.5% strikeout rate, and effective pitch usage changes contributing to his success.
