Blue Jays vs Braves Preview: Gausman vs Elder in Week 62

Kevin Gausman is taking the mound for Toronto tonight, and here's something wild: he used to pitch for the Braves. Now he's facing them as Toronto's ace. Gausman has been lights-out this season with a 1.5 ERA and 11 strikeouts. He won't give Atlanta easy outs. The Blue Jays need to bounce back after losing two straight games. This is your chance to see one of baseball's best pitchers silence one of the best hitting teams in the league.

The Braves are dominating at home with a 17-10 record and sitting at 40-20 overall. They're one of baseball's best teams right now. Toronto arrives at Truist Park looking to steal a win on the road. The Braves' pitching is loaded with talent. Spencer Strider and Chris Sale anchor the rotation with overpowering stuff. Raisel Iglesias shuts the door in close games. Atlanta's bats have been swinging hot too. You're about to watch two serious teams battle it out in a major matchup.

Toronto's pitching staff is their strength, but injuries are testing them hard. Dylan Cease just landed on the injured list. Jose Berrios had Tommy John surgery and won't be back until 2027. The Blue Jays are missing key depth. Despite losing two straight games, they're still dangerous. Their 29-31 record shows they're in a tough battle. Tonight's game against an elite Braves team will show how tough this Blue Jays team really is when healthy players step up to carry the load.
