The Dodgers have acquired outfielder from the Blue Jays, according to announcements from both clubs. The Jays, who designated Carl Yastrzemski Jersey Berroa for a signment last week, receive cash considerations in return. The Dodgers have had an open 40-man since designating for a signment a week ago. Berroa, 26 next month, got a small amount of major league experience last year. He got into 28 games for the Jays and stepped to the plate 45 times, putting up a .189/.333/.216 line in that time. He also stole six bases in eight tries and got some good reviews for his defense in that small sample, with Statcast placing his sprint speed in the 89th percentile of qualified big leaguers. His minor league offense has often been better than that major league showing, though he was out to a slow start this year. He was optioned to Triple-A to start 2025 but hit .195/.267/.234 in 24 games before the Jays designated him for a signment. Last year, he stepped to the plate 300 times at the Triple-A level. He hit ten home runs, drew a walk in 11.7% of those trips to the plate and struck out at a 23.7% clip, all that leading to a 120 wRC+. He also swiped 34 bags. He also had a good year at the plate in 2023 but was subpar in 2022. As mentioned, he has started this year on a down note. His future offense may be a question, but as the old saying goes, speed doesnt slump. Berroa had 58 steals on the farm in 2021 and then 47 in each of the two following years. Berroa still has options and could be sent to the minors, or the Dodgers could bring him directly to the big league club. They currently have both and on the injured list, subtracting two outfielders from their active roster. Thats led to guys like and getting playing time lately. Kim has a flat line of .318/.318/.318 thanks to no walks or extra-base hits, while Outman has a dismal .067/.176/.267 slash. Whether its in the minors as depth or in the majors, Berroa seems at least capable of serving as a fourth outfielder. Even if the bat doesnt come around, he could do some pinch running and defensive replacement work, while any developments at the plate would be a bonus.
