Dominguez has reported to the Jays and will be active for the second game of the two sides' doubleheader on Tuesday, according to the team. Toronto also designated right-hander Chad Green for assignment.
The 30-year-old Dominguez had a 3.24 earned-run average in 43 games for the Orioles this season.
He also had 54 strikeouts and 24 walks in 41 2/3 innings of work.
Dominguez was traded to Baltimore on July 26, 2024, after five-plus seasons with the Philadelphia Phillies and will be a free agent by season's end.
Oh, hi, nice to meet you 👋
