Yankees manager Aaron Boone spoke to the media today and stated that they would be sending out Luis Gil to faceoff against Gausman tomorrow afternoon.

Game 1 between Gausman and Gil will certainly be an incredible matchup as Gil is coming off a great season with a 3.32 ERA in 57 innings pitched but much like Gausman has struggled in the playoffs.
Gil's career ERA in the playoffs sits at 6.75 in 8 innings pitched with only 4 strikeouts so it will be interesting to see how he does against the Blue Jays tomorrow.
Gausman on the other hand has a slightly better career postseason ERA but it still is not great sitting at 4.91 in 25.2 innings pitched with a total of 30 strikeouts and a 0-2 record.
Coverage for the game begins at 2:30 PM tomorrow followed by the first pitch at 4:08 PM at the Rogers Centre.
