I totally understand why the Jays chose to start Gausman in game 1 but I think grouping Yesavage, Bieber, and Scherzer/Bassitt together is a bit on a bullpen strain when there will be less arms down there. ETA - as I read this, it doesn’t make a lot of sense as Bieber, Scherzer, and a bullpen day is more strain than Yesavage, Bieber, Scherzer/Bassitt.

I like putting the best arms at home and the bigger question marks in Seattle where T-Mobile could shield them a bit. I also would like to have Gausman pitch in either game 6 or 7 with good rest which is why I liked the bullpen day.
