A little over nine months ago, as the final move in their stunning trade deadline fire sale, the Twins made the decision to send right-handed reliever Louis Varland to the Blue Jays. Toronto has been reaping the benefits of that foolish, ill-advised choice ever since.

On Monday, Varland was named the American League Reliever of the Month for March/April. Including his appearance at Target Field on Friday (May 1), he's thrown 17 innings this season and has allowed one singular earned run on 13 hits and 5 walks. To go with his 0.53 ERA, he has 28 strikeouts and a 0.74 FIP. Varland recently took over the closer role for the Blue Jays and has four saves in the last couple weeks. He's been one of the two best, most dominant relievers in all of baseball.

Louis Varland: 16 IP, 26 Ks, 0.56 ERA, 4 saves

Mason Miller: 15.1 IP, 29 Ks, 1.17 ERA, 10 saves
