Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could rejoin MLB roster
PToronto Blue Jays
July 8, 2025
Bruihl joined the Blue Jays as a member of the taxi squad Tuesday and could be added to the MLB roster as the club considers a roster move, reports Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca.
Analysis
The left-hander was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo on Friday, so Toronto would need to place a player on the injured list in order for him to be called back up so quickly. In his four MLB appearances this season, Bruihl has given up one earned run with a 5:2 K:BB over 3.1 innings.
