Game 128 Preview: Stroman vs Gausman
After an exciting win last night, the Blue Jays will look to build some momentum back up as they play the second of their three game set against the visitingKevin Gausman gets the ball for the Jays, making his 25th start of the year. It has been a great first season in Toronto for the righty, as he is now 9-9 with a 3.15 ERA, and an exceptional 2.01 FIP. That FIP is easily the best in baseball, and as a result, he is still the fWAR leader for pitchers, coming in at 5.1.
Danny Jansen was the hero last night, with the huge 3-run home run in the 8th and the walkoff single in the 11th. Jano is now 6 for his 12 with 2 home runs and a double, picking up 2 walks and not striking out.

In the 89 games he has played otherwise, he is hitting .255/.331/.418 showing off a bit of the power/speed combo that had so many fans excited to see him come to the US.
