Between games of their doubleheader, the Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles struck a deal, according to Sportsnet’s Ben Nicholson-Smith. The Blue Jays have acquired right-hander Seranthony Domínguez and cash considerations from the Orioles in exchange for minor league right-hander Juaron Watts-Brown.

Domínguez, 30, is earning $8 million this season and is in his final year of team control. He joined the Orioles at the 2024 trade deadline after spending several seasons with the Phillies. This year, the 6’1″, 225-pound reliever has been one of Baltimore’s most trusted late-inning arms, logging 41 2/3 innings with a 3.24 ERA.

So far in 2025, Domínguez has tallied 13 holds, two saves, and three blown saves. Outside of Baltimore’s closer, Felix Bautista, no pitcher in the Orioles’ bullpen has been used more often in high-leverage situations. Domínguez is no stranger to protecting late leads—something the injury-riddled Blue Jays bullpen has been sorely lacking. Over 298 career MLB appearances, he owns 40 saves and 71 holds.

Toronto’s bullpen entered play Monday tied for seventh in the majors with a collective 3.72 ERA, though that was before surrendering 27 runs to the Orioles in the first two games of the series. According to the team, Domínguez will be active for Game 2 of the July 29 doubleheader in Baltimore. To make room on the 26-man and 40-man rosters, RHP Chad Green has been designated for assignment.
