Even though the Toronto Blue Jays season has begun, News and Notes will always continue.
This episode will cover updates on a power-hitting catcher’s injuries as well as news pertaining to their ace. What condition is their 2022 ace in, too? Anyway, keep reading to find out!
The commencement date for Kevin Gausman is still pending.
Toronto’s ace Kevin Gausman threw a bullpen session on Friday, but it’s unclear when he’ll start, according to Sportsnet’s Hazel Mae.
In just three innings pitched, Gausman struck out seven batters in his lone Grapefruit League start. This is because he was sidelined until the very last day of spring training due to a shoulder ailment.
The Blue Jays need Gausman healthy as soon as possible, and that’s not a bold statement. The 33-year-old finished third in the American League Cy Young voting last season with a 3.16 ERA, 2.97 FIP, 31.1 K%, and 7.2 BB% in 185 innings thrown.
Danny Jansen resumed his bat stroke.
Danny Jansen was struck by a pitch for what seemed like the a thousandth time, breaking a bone in his hand—this time, his right pisiform, which is located close to the wrist. I’m not a doctor; I write about sports.
Shi Davidi claims that he was long tossing and hitting the bat on Friday, which is encouraging news that he should return soon.
