The Blue Jays picked him up in a trade from the Mariners, along with minor leaguer Adam Macko, in exchange for Teoscar Hernandez. Generally, I hate trading an everyday player for a relief pitcher. I know there are reasons for this one. Mainly that Hernandez is going into his last season of team control.
But ignoring that we traded an all-star outfielder for a guy who might throw 60 innings this year, what do we have in Swanson? Well, he’s pitched four seasons for the Mariners. He made 8 starts for them in 2019 but was quickly moved to the pen. He only made it into 9 games in 2020, but 2020 was a very short season. In 2021 he pitched in 33 games, making 2 starts , 53.2 innings, 39 hits, 10 walks and 70 strikeouts. Batters hit just .202/.245/.290 against him. He was equally good against LHB and RHB . The 34.0% strikeout rate is what really stands out.
