Gausman's signing with the Toronto Blue Jays on December 1, 2021, marked a significant investment by the team in bolstering their pitching staff. The five-year, $110 million contract reflected the confidence the Blue Jays had in Gausman's abilities to deliver on the mound. In the 2022 season, Gausman lived up to expectations, making 31 starts and achieving a solid 12-10 win-loss record with an impressive 3.35 ERA.
Gausman's impact extended into the postseason, where he made a crucial start for the Blue Jays during the Wild Card Series against the Seattle Mariners, demonstrating his ability to perform under pressure. Building on his success, Gausman had an outstanding 2023 season, maintaining a stellar 3.16 ERA over 185 innings and leading the American League with an impressive 237 strikeouts.
His remarkable performance in 2023 earned him recognition as he placed third in the Cy Young Award voting. This accolade solidified Gausman's status as one of the premier pitchers in the league, further cementing his importance to the Toronto Blue Jays' pitching rotation and their aspirations for postseason success.
With Gausman's health back on the rise, fans eagerly await to see his inevitable return to dominating the league. Will his success in recent seasons continue on into the upcoming 2024 season? Later today, we will find out if that sentiment is true, although many have little doubt about his performance in the near future. Gausman is a name that will forever be linked to the success of the Blue Jays during his era with the team, and will likely continue for as long as he wears Toronto's colors.
