Probable Starting Pitchers

Luis Gil (4-1, 3.32 ERA, 41 K) vs. Kevin Gausman (10-11, 3.59 ERA, 189 K)

Luis Gil will be on the hill for the Yankees in this first game of the American League Division Series. Gil spent the majority of the season recovering from a shoulder injury but has since returned to form. Gil will need his best stuff to get through a lineup that boasts the best batting average in baseball. Meanwhile, Kevin Gausman will take the ball for the Blue Jays. He last faced the Yankees on September 5th, where he put on a master class in pitching. He went eight innings, allowed just four hits, and one run.
