"While the Puerto Rican product looked dominant at times, such as his June 21st game against the Chicago White Sox (7 2/3 IP, 2 hits, 0 ER) and on April 7th against the Boston Red Sox (7.0 IP, 4 hits, 1 ER), he equally struggled to give five or more innings on numerous occasions and allowed 77 earned runs - the same amount he allowed in 2023 and 2024 - while pitching over 20+ fewer innings compared to both seasons."
""It was an unbelievable year, those guys gave 100% out there... I battled all year with my elbow and bicep, but the way my team competed out there, I was trying to keep out there and compete every day with them. At the end of the season, I couldn't hold it anymore, that feeling in my arm... I had the MRI and it showed bicep tendon inflammation. Nothing major, attacked it really quick, and that's why I didn't pitch in the playoffs.""
"After making one appearance out of the bullpen, the right-hander landed on the IL and finished the season on the sidelines, his first time on the injured list over the course of his ten-year career. He was also noticeably absent from the bench during the World Series, which raised questions from the fans and reporters. Following the offseason signings of Dylan Cease and Cody Ponce, more questions followed in regards to whether the Jays might trade Berrios and his remaining three years, $67 million owed."
Jose Berrios produced sporadic dominant outings in 2025 but frequently failed to reach five innings and allowed 77 earned runs while pitching over 20 fewer innings than prior seasons. He dealt with persistent elbow and bicep discomfort throughout the year, and an MRI revealed bicep tendon inflammation that prevented postseason pitching. The team shifted him to the bullpen late after Trey Yesavage's emergence, and Berrios landed on the injured list for the first time in his ten-year career. His absence from the World Series bench and offseason signings of Dylan Cease and Cody Ponce prompted trade speculation given his remaining three years and $67 million owed.
