Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jose Berrios gave up five runs in just three innings versus the Chicago White Sox tonight.

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Jose Berrios has not been performing as the team hoped he would this season. They traded for him last season at the deadline and then signed him to a big deal this offseason. For the next seven years, he will be making $131 million in Toronto.

However, Berrios hasn't looked like a pitcher worth hundreds of millions of dollars this season. Heading into today's start against the Chicago White Sox, he had a 4.65 earned-run average with a 1.24 WHIP.

Those numbers have only gotten worse today. After just four innings of work in Chicago and at the time of writing, Berrios allowed six runs on nine hits and one walk. He only managed to strike out one batter.

Berrios got outdueled by White Sox ace Lance Lynn. It's currently the sixth inning, and Lynn has pitched through five. He's only allowed one earned run on two hits and a walk. He has five strikeouts.

For Berrios, tonight isn't just another bad start. Toronto Blue Jays fans are beginning to become anxious that his bad start this season is actually something much worse. He was supposed to be the team's ace. However, he's nowhere close to that, with Kevin Gausman and Alek Manoah both pitching like aces this season.

This user can't take another bad start by Jose Berrios. They've seen too many already.
