Kevin Gausman talks about his dominant performances, plus news of the week and we open up the mail bag

Guest: Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Gausman Kevin Gausman has taken a huge leap forward over his past four starts, dominating the playoff-bound Milwaukee Brewers, New York Yankees and Houston Astros before turning in a solid September 17 performance in a 2-1 Blue Jays loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. The right-hander has a sparkling 0.90 ERA over those four starts - and just 2.30 over his past 15 outings - and he's put himself in position to be the Jays' first starter out of the gate in the post-season. The 34-year-old joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about his turnaround, being at his best when it matters the most, and this magical Blue Jays' season as they head into the playoffs. We also deal with the news of the week, including Trey Yesavage's magical major-league debut, Bo Bichette being out for at least the rest of September, Baltimore analyst Brian Roberts' ignorant comments about Canadian baseball fans, the release of one-time top prospect Orelvis Martinez and the replay controversy in Tampa. Plus, we open up the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!
