Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Gausman is progressing well in spring training, aiming to ensure his full health for the regular season. He plans to pitch in the spring finale against the Pirates, targeting around 55 pitches over three innings. Gausman's performance has been impressive, with seven strikeouts in three innings and a total of 52 pitches thrown. The team is considering his availability for the start of the season based on his upcoming outing.
Kevin Gausman allows a seeing-eye single to begin bot4 and leaves having thrown 52 pitches (35 strikes) and looking very much like himself. This is great news for #Bluejays. Expect Gausman to start the 4th or 5th game of the season, throwing 65-70 pitches.
Gausman came out the fourth, threw three more pitches, gave up a weak, bad-hop Ke'Bryan Hayes single and is done at 52 pitches. https://t.co/LzpXGJZrjo
Kevin Gausman's day is done: 3+ IP • 0 ER, 3 H, 0 BB, 7 K • 52 pitches Ideal day in every way. Feels like Gausman could make that first regular season start in the back end of the rotation. #BlueJays

One last time, from Bradenton. Story of the day is Kevin Gausman, who can put himself in position to be ready for the first trip through the rotation. That would simplify a few things. #BlueJays https://t.co/ChvqoMOoXU

Kevin Gausman will start for Blue Jays tomorrow in Bradenton vs. Pirates. He'll be targeting around 55 pitches over three innings. If Gausman pitches well and feels physically sound, he could be in play for either fourth or fifth game of regular season.

A healthy Gausman is integral to the Blue Jays' hopes this season and the right-hander says it's better to take the appropriate steps now to make sure he's fully healthy when he’s handed the ball for the first time in the regular season. (@ByDavidSingh) https://t.co/sMvNNQM9qU
