Thompson was acquired by the Blue Jays from the Pirates on Tuesday in exchange for Chavez Young.
Thompson had been designated for assignment last week and he now has a new home. The right-hander put up a 5.18 ERA for the Pirates in 2022 while splitting time between the rotation and bullpen. He should have a chance to compete for a rotation spot in Toronto but could wind up in a swingman role again.
