Kevin Gausman to Pitch "in Some Capacity" on Sunday
Kevin Gausman will pitch "in some capacity" against the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday, manager John Schneider told reporters. The Blue Jays will need a victory in the regular-season finale to lock up the American League East, so Gausman will likely make a normal start. Toronto entered play on Saturday with the same record as the division-rival New York Yankees (92-68). However, New York has since pulled a half-game ahead thanks to an afternoon win over the Baltimore Orioles. The Blue Jays, who own the tiebreaker over the Yankees, will have to beat the Rays on Saturday to enter Sunday atop the division and control their own destiny. Despite a 10-11 record, Gausman has helped pitch the Jays to the playoffs this season. The 34-year-old has notched a 3.47 ERA with a 1.03 WHIP and 184:48 K:BB over 31 starts and 189 2/3 innings.
