The Blue Jays have landed one of the best starting pitchers available ahead of the trade deadline, acquiring Minnesota Twins ace Jose Berrios. Berrios, 27, is 7-5 with a 3.48 ERA in 20 starts for the struggling Twins this season and he comes with an extra year of control. Heading to the Twins are two of Toronto’s top four prospects: shortstop and outfielder Austin Martin, their No. Both played with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats this season and both rank among the top 100 prospects in baseball. The trade deadline is at 4 p.m.
