It's been quite the year for Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Braydon Fisher.The 25-year-old was acquired by the Blue Jays in a trade that saw Cavan Biggio head to the LA Dodgers partway through the 2024 season. At that time, he hadn't yet pitched at the MLB level.However, that changed this past season, as Fisher was selected to the Blue Jays' 40-man roster in early May. He wound up pitching 50 innings for the Jays, posting an impressive 2.70 ERA along with 62 strikeouts. He was also entrusted with pitching seven innings during the playoffs.The great year for Fisher was extended into the offseason, as the right-hander tied the knot last week with his fiancée, Brianna Ririe, at The Luminaire in Montgomery, Texas. The Jays reliever announced the exciting news on Instagram over the weekend.    View this post on Instagram           A post shared by Braydon Fisher (@braydon_fisher11)"Marrie...
