José Ureña has found himself once again designated for assignment, this time by the Toronto Blue Jays, after a brief stint with the New York Mets where he struggled to impress. During his only appearance for the Mets, he surrendered five earned runs in just three innings, leading to his release just weeks later. Ureña, a veteran pitcher known for his time with the Miami Marlins, has seen various roles across multiple teams, but his recent performance has raised questions about his viability in the majors.

His past experiences with teams including the Detroit Tigers and Texas Rangers include a solid season where he notched 14 wins with a respectable ERA. However, his recent struggles have put him at a crossroads in his career as he turns 34 this September. It will be interesting to see if he opts for free agency again or if he can find a new opportunity to revitalize his career.
