Toronto's Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Gausman frankly assesses the team's remaining games following their loss to the Rays.
The Toronto Blue Jays suffered a 2-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday night, snapping a two-game win streak and stalling their momentum in the four-game series. Despite the setback, the Blue Jays' playoff push is still ongoing.
Every inning matters as the Blue Jays aim to secure their postseason positioning. The final stretch of the 2025 MLB regular season could define the Blue Jays' postseason seeding and AL East title hopes. The team's record currently stands at 89-63.
The Blue Jays hold a four-game lead over the New York Yankees in the AL East with just 10 games remaining. However, the Yankees have won six out of their last ten games, putting pressure on the Blue Jays.
Momentum, confidence, and health will be crucial factors in the team's push toward the finish line. Core hitters such as Guerrero Jr., Bichette, and Springer must perform well in key moments.
Veteran pitcher Kevin Gausman shared his thoughts on the team's mental and physical toll during the playoff push. Gausman's assessment was raw and honest, emphasizing the importance of willpower over comfort at this stage of the season.
The Blue Jays' pitching staff needs to stay sharp in the final stretch of the season. The team's final stretch includes three consecutive divisional matchups against the Red Sox, Orioles, and Yankees.
The Boston Red Sox remain a threat despite their inconsistencies and injuries. The Blue Jays will aim to bounce back in the series finale against the Rays before facing the Red Sox.
Gausman and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. discussed the team's mindset earlier in the day. The youngest player in MLB history to hit a home run is not explicitly mentioned in the provided search results.
The post sharing Gausman's thoughts was shared by Mitch Bannon on X, formerly known as Twitter. Every game carries increasing weight in Toronto's playoff push. The Blue Jays will need to keep their focus and maintain their performance to secure their spot in the postseason.
