"Gausman, Cease, and Lauer will start the three games against the Athletics, while Ponce and Scherzer's first start will be against the Colorado Rockies."
"A handful of starters will begin the season on the injured list, including rookie sensation Trey Yesavage, who was placed on the IL due to shoulder impingement."
"The Blue Jays' rotation is still an area of strength, especially if Lauer pitches like he did in 2025 and Ponce's success translates in Major League Baseball."
The Blue Jays' starting rotation features Gausman, Cease, Lauer, Ponce, and Scherzer. Gausman, Cease, and Lauer will face the Athletics, while Ponce and Scherzer will start against the Rockies. Scherzer is set to pitch against the Dodgers on April 6th. Several starters, including Trey Yesavage, Shane Bieber, and Berríos, are on the injured list, challenging the team's pitching depth. Minor league options include Adam Macko and Lázaro Estrada, while the rotation remains a strength if Lauer and Ponce perform well.
