The Toronto Blue Jays have their final game in Seattle tomorrow night and have announced a surprising starting pitcher for the game.
Blue Jays will have Kevin Gausman start for game 5
Game 4 tonight is very important as it will determine if the Blue Jays will be facing elimination tomorrow night or hoping to finally take the lead in the series.
Manager John Schneider announced this evening ahead of game 4 that they will have
Kevin Gausman make his second start of the series tomorrow night while
Trey Yesavage will be available from the bullpen.
Kevin Gausman will start Game 5 for the #BlueJays
Trey Yesavage could be available out of the bullpen.
This is an interesting situation since Gausman should be fully rested by tomorrow night as it will be 5 days since his last outing but if they end up using Yesavage out of the bullpen they will but out of options come game 6.
According to Ben Nicholson-Smith, Yesavage will only be available out of the bullpen tomorrow if the Blue Jays end up losing tonight.
Kevin Gausman starts for Blue Jays in G5
If Blue Jays lose G4, Trey Yesavage likely to be available out of the bullpen tomorrow.
This is certainly the right move because if they lose tonight, they need to solely focus on game 5 and nothing else.
