Let's jump right into segment one, the series and the pitching.
Nick, we talked yesterday about Chris Bassitt settling down, and he did exactly that in the win, but now we head to Toronto.
Kyle Bradish needs rest, Trevor Rogers is likely on the hook for tomorrow if we can sweep, and Brandon Young has been working in relief spots.
Baz makes sense here.
He's got the stuff to keep this close.
That's a bold call.
Baz hasn't had a full start since mid-August, right? The Blue Jays' lineup is dangerous.
They've been climbing the standings.
How worried should we be about their power hitters against Baz?
I am cautiously optimistic.
Baz's strikeout rate is still elite when he's locating his fastball.
The key is early innings defense.
If he can get through five without giving up more than one run, the bullpen gets a breather.
They put balls in play.
And speaking of the bullpen, remember our conversation from the 8th? We were talking about how depleted it is.
With Ryan Helsley on the 60-day IL and Colin Holderman on the 15-day IL, the margin for error is zero.
Zero.
That's the truth.
If Baz goes six solid innings, maybe they use only three relievers.
It's a gamble.
