This is great news for the Blue Jays as it will give them a real idea of where Bieber is at is his recover and it will give fans an idea of how well he can still pitch after his Tommy John surgery.
While still with the Guardians, Bieber had only gotten up to the Double-A level where he had a few phenomenal outing but this will be his first real test since hurting himself last year.
If Toronto could get Bieber back to the level he was at before his surgery, he will truly be the biggest acquisition of the deadline.
Everyone in Toronto is hoping for the best right now and expecting him to make a full recovery.
