Ever since the Toronto Blue Jays trades for Ryan Yarbrough from the Tampa Bay Rays, he has been absolutely dominating on the mound, especially in the month of August.
Ryan Yarbrough as a Blue Jay:

The 32-year-old long reliever boasts a 5-2 record with a 3.44 ERA this season and 5 K's in 83.2 IP. The Jays traded fan favorite gold glover centerfielder Kevin Kiermaier to the Dodgers and didn't expect to get such a solid and reliable pitcher in return, especially after placing KK on waivers.
Nonetheless, Blue Jays fans have a new arm they are falling in love with.
