The whole momentum shift started on Sunday when Alek Manoah threw 7 shutout innings and Chris Bassitt followed the next night with the same stat line, going seven strong innings without giving up a run.
The whole starting pitching staff has had a cumulative ERA of 1.69.
Gausman attributes his poor start this season to not taking more time to rehab and heal his shoulder injury.
«In hindsight, I probably should have gone on the (injured list) and gotten back to normal before I came up,» Gausman said after a 5-4 loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday.
«It's been an uphill battle trying to get right. I've had some outings where I feel like that's it and then the next outing is not it, so I'm just chasing that consistency right now.»
