TORONTO – The baseball season is, in some ways, all about managing an ever-changing series of small fires. To start, maybe the offence isn’t clicking. Just when that comes around, the rotation erupts. Then, the bullpen goes, which only serves to reignite the starters. On and on it goes, teams moving from one crisis to another until only the deepest clubs remain standing.
Over the past couple of weeks, during which they split four games with the Baltimore Orioles before dropping three straight series to contending clubs, the Toronto Blue Jays have dealt with a number of flareups. Hyun Jin Ryu’s season-ending surgery. The struggles of Yusei Kikuchi and, more surprisingly, Jose Berrios. Danny Jansen’s ongoing absence. George Springer’s elbow. A series of bullpen injuries. Seemingly daily use of the Buffalo-to-Toronto relief shuffle.
It's been a lot, which made Kevin Gausman’s seven shutout innings plus home runs from Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Matt Chapman in a series-opening 7-2 thumping of the Boston Red Sox on Monday an ideal way to douse the recent embers.
