Blue Jays say closer Roberto Osuna ready but Devon Travis out for Game 2 of ALDS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Blue Jays closer Roberto Osuna is available if needed Friday for Game 2 of the American League Division Series.
The 21-year-old right-hander has been in question since leaving the 10th inning of Toronto’s 5-2 win over Baltimore on Tuesday in the AL wild-card game. Osuna complained of a slight “stretch” in his shoulder.
“He should be OK,” manager John Gibbons said Friday morning. “We weren’t going to use him (Thursday). He should be good today.”
Thanks to starter Marco Estrada, Toronto didn’t need much of a bullpen Thursday. The right-hander was near flawless in 8 1/3 innings as Toronto thumped Texas 10-1.
