Kevin Gausman Set To Start Saturday
1 year agoToronto Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman (side) is penciled in to start on Saturday against the Seattle Mariners. Gausman was scratched from his start last weekend as a precaution due to left-side discomfort, so he'll be making his first start of the second half of the season this weekend in Seattle. The 32-year-old All-Star last took the mound on July 8 against the Detroit Tigers and gave up two earned runs in six innings while fanning seven. He'll be a bit more risky against the M's this weekend because of his side injury, but we wouldn't recommend benching him in a solid matchup. Overall, Gausman has gone 7-5 with a 3.03 ERA (2.46 FIP), 1.13 WHIP, 29 walks and 153 strikeouts in 19 starts in his second year in Toronto.
