Berroa again began the 2024 season with Buffalo. On June 23, 2024, he was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[9] His first major league hit was a double off Dane Dunning of the Texas Rangers on July 27.[10] In 28 appearances for the Blue Jays during his rookie campaign, he batted .189/.333/.216 with one RBI and six stolen bases.[11]
