Jhony Brito, a 28-year-old right-handed pitcher for the San Diego Padres, has a promising career ahead despite a challenging start. Traded from the New York Yankees, Brito has shown potential as a reliever with a 2.88 ERA, but struggled as a starter with a 6.32 ERA. Injuries have plagued his career, including a forearm strain, UCL repair, and flexor tendon repair, which led to his absence in 2025. The Padres still see starter potential in him, but his rehab may carry into 2026. Fans and scouts eagerly await his return to see if he can translate his reliever success into a starting role.
