The Toronto Blue Jays have been eliminated from the MLB playoffs.
MINNEAPOLIS - The early hook for Jose Berrios will be a hot talking point as the dust settles on another Blue Jays post-season that ended in a first-round sweep.
All the pitching moves in the world won't matter if the offence doesn't deliver.
Factor in a big basepath blunder and a lack of timely hitting and it's no surprise Toronto is still looking for its first playoff win since 2016.
After a 3-1 win in Game 1, the Minnesota Twins completed a two-game sweep Wednesday by shutting out the Blue Jays 2-0 at Target Field.
“I think that we can all look at each other in the face and say collectively we fell short of executing what we wanted to do,” said Blue Jays manager John Schneider.
The Twins, who ended an 18-game playoff losing skid a day earlier, will advance to the AL Division Series against the Houston Astros.
The Blue Jays, meanwhile, were left searching for answers after being swept in the first round for the third time in four years.
