was our big free agent signing before the 2022 season. The Jays gave him a five-year, $110 million contract. And he earned his money. FanGraphs had him at a 5.7 WAR, making him worth $45.7 million to the team. Kevin turned 32 earlier this month and has three years left on his contract.
What changed? Well, more strikeouts. He had a 28.3% strikeout rate last year after being in the lower 20s earlier in his career. Last year he only walked 3.9% of batters, but that’s the first time he’s been under 6%. Last year he didn’t give out his first walk until his sixth start and didn’t walk more than two in a game until June 11th.
Gausman has been a two-pitch pitcher most of his career, throwing a mid-90s four-seam fastball up and a mid-80s cutter down. Last year, after some games where he was hit a bit harder, he started mixing in a slider . The mid-season doldrums cost him the number 1 spot in the rotation, but it is pretty hard to complain about his year as a whole.

Opinion | For surehanded Hall of Famer Scott Rolen, the Blue Jays were a stepping stoneRolen was always considered a well-above-average third baseman, but not necessarily a Hall of Famer. But the numbers back up his case, and he’s in by a slim margin.

Peter Nicholson's bold route to a better health-care systemUnder Peter Nicholson’s plan, the CHT would be abolished. Instead, corporate and personal income tax points, or HST points, equivalent to the $43-billion CHT could be transferred to the provinces, allowing them to increase provincial tax rates and revenues, while federal taxes would be reduced by the equivalent amount so there should be no increase in the overall level of taxes paid by Canadians.
