They kick off a series against the Seattle Mariners today. And following a win in that series would face either the Los Angeles Dodgers or the Milwaukee Brewers next.

Bo's not on the ALCS roster, but Scherzer and Bassitt are, replacing Bruihl and Nance:

Idk but I can guess. I think if your best 3 starters pitch games 1, 2, and 3 of a 7-game series, then they also usually start games 5, 6, and 7 (i.e., your best starters start twice). Maybe with the pushback he'll probably only start once

OOOOH, that makes sense! If he were the #1 and played #2, he'd only pitch once in a Jays sweep etc.

Thanks!
