<p>Stripling started his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers and got traded to the Blue Jays ahead of the trade deadline during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season. He made 61 appearances, 45 of which were starts, for the Blue Jays over parts of three seasons and posted a 3.94 ERA.</p>
<p>Stripling started the 2022 season as the long reliever in Toronto&#8217;s bullpen and joined the starting rotation when Hyun Jin Ryu went down with what wound up being a season-ending injury. Over 24 starts and eight appearances as a reliever, Stripling put up a 10-4 record and a 3.01 ERA. It was a significant performance for the Blue Jays given Ryu&#8217;s injury and the poor performances of Jose Berrios and Yusei Kikuchi.</p>
<p>After the Blue Jays signed Chris Bassitt on Monday, it became inevitable that Stripling would be signing elsewhere in free agency. Since the Blue Jays didn&#8217;t issue Stripling a qualifying offer, the team won&#8217;t receive any draft pick compensation for his departure.</p>
